Early Bird Pricing for Realm Makers through March 15th!


March is here, friends of Realm Makers, which means lots of excitement is underway.

If you’re still on the fence about attending this year’s Realm Makers Annual Conference, don’t forget our Early Bird pricing ends at the end of the day on March 15th. Now’s the time to register to get the best deal on your registration. And if you want a paid critique of your current work-in-progress, they’re selling out fast! Registration is strong this year but you can still snag a spot with award-winning authors if you act soon. We recently wrapped up our Winter Creativity Summit, featuring author and creativity coach Allen Arnold. Plans for next year’s retreat are already taking shape, so if you missed this one, keep an eye out around conference time for information about our next opportunity to rejuvenate and invigorate your writing spirit.

Maybe conference attendance feels out of reach for you for financial reasons—we understand, and that’s why we have a limited number of full and/or partial scholarships available for a few writers with extenuating financial circumstances. Come to our dedicated online community, the RealmSphere, to apply. If you have not yet joined the RealmSphere now is the time to join Realm Makers' dedicated social network at http://community.realmmakers.com.

Even if travel to Atlantic City is out of the question for you, scholarships apply to both the in-person conference or live-
online participation. Before you know it, many of us will convene on Harrah’s Resort in Atlantic City, we’ll give out this year’s Realm Awards, and so many authors will forge new friendships within our one-of-a-kind tribe. We hope to see you this summer, but in the meantime, come and say hello on The RealmSphere and our social media pages. Lots more news and details will fill those feeds in the
weeks to come.

Whether in person or live online, we hope to see you at Realm Makers in July!
