It is especially exciting that in less than two months, I will have the privilege of meeting and learning from two wonderful Christian authors. Kristen Heitzmann and Janice Hanna Thompson will be the guest speakers at the Called to Write Conference in Pittsburg, Kan.

I have read several works by both of these authors. Ms. Heitzmann is known for compelling, contemporary stories that weave emotion into thrilling plots. At a good friend's recommendation, I recently read The Still of Night. I was a bit hesitant because I knew my friend loved this book and I worried it wouldn't quite live up to expectations. It proved to be every bit as gripping as promised. I just started the next book in the series,The Breath of Dawn, which my friend promises is even better.
Janice Thompson writes both fiction and non-fiction and I'm hard pressed to say which I like better. Her charming romance stories are filled with humor and her devotionals are both wise and witty.
Lucky for me, The Called To Write Conference is just a few hours from home. Lucky for you, it is incredibly bargain priced - just $70 before March 1, then $80 after that date. So even if you have to travel, this conference is well worth it.
I hope you consider coming. Bring along your books for Ms. Heitzmann and Ms. Thompson to sign and be sure to find me so we can get acquainted. Meeting authors and fellow writers is the best part of any writers conference.
