The Chapter Twenty-One Conference (or Ch21Con) is a writer’s conference entirely by and for young adults. As twenty-something writers ourselves, the Ch21Con team is here to help you:IMG_0530

Ch1Con [Ch21Con’s sister conference for teen writers] gave me the amazing opportunity to connect with and learn from other young writers at various stages in the writing and publishing process. It can be so easy to get overwhelmed as a young writer just starting out, and Ch1Con is an excellent way to find encouragement, friendship, and connections in the writing community. I can’t wait to return!

Everyone at Chapter One Con was super friendly and I immediately felt at home. Not only did I learn invaluable knowledge and skills related to writing and publishing, I made new friends, met some amazing people, and became part of one of the best communities. My only ‘complaint’ is that one weekend will never be long enough to hang out with these awesome people! I can’t wait to be a part of Chapter 21 Con and will continue to attend every year.
