On November 14, 2015, CW hosted its first annual writers conference at Nashville Community Education, 4805 Park Ave, Nashville, TN 37209. The purpose of the conference was to provide aspiring and published writers resources for sustaining, enhancing, and evaluating their writing skills. The conference themes were genre-based writing, creativity in writing, mechanics of writing, academic writing, and writing as a
business. When writers understand their writing, they are better equipped to overcome the challenges they face in writing.  

Conference Objectives:
  • Enable writers to learn from other writers for the development of networking relationships and professional development.
  • Assist writers with techniques for sustaining their writing talents in their chosen genre or various genres.
  • Provide resources related to non-traditional and traditional publishing.
  • Enhance writers’ understanding for marketing strategies in the 21st century.​
