Welcome to the website of the Black Writers Reunion & Conference, the ultimate conference in the U.S. and internationally for Black creative writers since 2000. For over a decade we’ve brought together incredible, dynamic speakers, workshops, and sessions to enlighten, encourage, excite, and inspire fellow writers, both published and unpublished, to pursue their dreams.
Black Writers Reunion & Conference 2012 ensues Labor Day weekend in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in conjunction with the first Write Time Black Writers Retreat. The conference, held August 29-31, offers the trademark interactive hands-on writing workshops, seminars, inspirational sessions, book sales, exhibitor expo, sponsorship opportunities, and networking events. From September 1st to 3rd, the retreat will lend inspired conference attendees and writers simply seeking a few days away from busy lives the chance to focus on their writing for extended blocks of time.
BWRC exists to help you to improve your writing, develop new skills, increase your publishing knowledge, launch and build your writing career or business, and expand your network of other writers who can relate to your dreams and inspire you to surpass them. The only touring conference for Black writers, BWRC gives attendees the chance to engage their adventurous sides and experience new places with a fun, yet focused group of like-minded creative individuals.
Several scholarships will be offered this year to individuals interested in attending the conference, including a Young Writers Award for high school and college students ages 14-24, among others. Details to come.
Breakfast roundtable proposals continue to be accepted through February 21. See Call for Session Proposals for details.
