Have you been to a writers’ conference?

 

Even if you’re published, conferences can be a great way to network, make friends, continue your education, and most of all, be a part of the writing community.

 

Writing is a solitary endeavor, so it’s helpful to be reminded that you’re a part of something bigger.

 

Plus, those friendships with other writers can be invaluable when nobody in your “real life” really gets you.

 

Conferences aren’t a necessity but depending on your situation and budget, I recommend you consider going to one every year or two.
