The Maui Writers' Conference is known as the most important conference in the world for both the publishing and film industries. Over 50 top agents and editors and 150 presenters attend, looking for new talent. If you want to write and be published or produced, this is the place to be on Labor Day Weekend.
The conference features prose and screenwriting competitions and a "manuscript marketplace", where budding stars can circulate their resumés. Best-selling authors, award-winning journalists and other stars of the literary and film worlds are on hand to give lectures, consultations and workshops - a fantastic forum for teaching and advice from the best in the business.
If all this isn't enough to stir your blood, remember that this is Hawaii we're talking about - not only do you get the premier writers conference of the year, but also some serious sunshine - perhaps the writers' retreat preceding the conference is a good idea too...
