If you live in the Midwest and are looking for something to do this weekend, here's a conference that might interest you. It's the 2010 Annual Called to Write Conference sponsored by the Christian Writers Fellowship.
The conference will be April 9 & 10 at the Lamplighter Inn and Suites, 2040 Parkview Drive in Pittsburg, Kansas. Speakers include:

I'm not sure if you can register this late, but it's worth checking out. For more information, including area lodging and dining options, contact Carol Russell rlrussell@ckt.net or visit http://www.christianwritersfellowship.blogspot.com/
