We are in need of volunteers to donate ONE HOUR of their time to assist writers by giving 15 minute one-on-one interviews in the field of your expertise.

Time slots available on all conference days!

Please contact Anne Tibbets at OfficeHours@sfwa.org to volunteer!

Additionally, if you’d like to sign up to interview a knowledgeable and experienced volunteer, we have sessions available in the following categories:

‘Breaking into Business, Tech, and Ghost Writing’
‘Navigating the Business of Writing Novels’
‘How to Break into Freelance Teaching’
‘The Ins and Outs of Social Sciences and Services’
‘How to Brand and Build a Fan Base in Self Publishing’
‘How to Query Agents and What to Expect’

More will become available as we gather more volunteers!
Pay it forward and offer some one-on-one advice for a writer in need.

Please contact Anne Tibbets at OfficeHours@sfwa.org

The 2019 Nebula Conference is SOLD OUT, but don’t panic! We’re looking into expanding capacity & expect to release more tickets. If you haven’t bought your membership yet, email events@sfwa.org to be notified when additional tickets are released.
