Welcome
A
Word from CCWC's Director
Marlene Bagnull, Litt.D.
I have never repeated a theme in 12 years of directing CCWC
and 25 years of directing the
Greater Philly Christian
Writers Conference,
but as I consider the crises facing our nation and world,
I cannot think of a more important assignment than to "write His answer."
I'm praying you will accept His assignment
and make plans now to join us on the mountain May 13-16, 2009.
Whether you are publishing regularly or not-yet-published,
and whether you write fiction or nonfiction
for children or adults, CCWC is an investment in your writing ministry
that can open doors and change your life.

Jill Hart, founder of CWAHM
(Christian Work at Home Moms),
interviewed me about the conference.

An article about the conference
is in the April issue of Christian Fiction Online.

Publishers Corner.
There's also an article by faculty member,
Jeff
Gerke,
publisher of Marcher Lord Press.
Whether you write or read fiction,
you need to subscribe to this excellent e-zine.
Oversized
postcard replaces brochure!
It
was a difficult decision to replace our 8-page brochure with an oversized
postcard,
but once I saw the final product I was really excited.
If you're on our mailing list, you'll be receiving one by mid-February.
To see our exciting, new look, click here.
Not only are we saving trees, we're
passing the monetary savings on to conferees
through no increase in the price of registration.
CCWC
features a faculty of over 50 professional
authors, editors, agents, and publicists
Choose from
14 Wednesday earlybirds,
7
continuing sessions,
plus
42 workshops or 5 hands-on clinics!
ALSO - 4 (yes,
FOUR) one-on-one 15-minute appointments
with the faculty of your choice for those who attend the entire
conference.
BONUS fifth appointment for first 50 registrants.
But CCWC is about
so much more
than numbers and opportunities
to strengthen
your writing and marketing skills,
to get valuable
feedback on your work,
to pitch to
editors and agents,
and to form deep friendships with others
who share your passion for words and for the Lord.
CCWC is about connecting
with Him
and learning to wait on Him for the answers He will give us.
If you long for your words to make a
difference in the lives of your readers,
if your heart's desire is to be encouraged and equipped
to write about a God who is real, who is reachable, and who changes lives,
you need to come to this year's CCWC
and trust Him to make it possible!
