The Washington Writers Conference

Don't miss this unique opportunity to learn from the best! Join the DC literary community and successful authors, agents, and publishers from around the country for the 5th Annual Washington Writers Conference at the College Park Marriott Hotel & Conference Center in Hyattsville, MD. See why this inspiring and instructive two-day conference has quickly become a leading literary event in the DC area.


It kicks off on the evening of Friday, April 28th, with an informal meet-and-greet (cash bar), followed by a "how to pitch an agent" session.

On Saturday, April 29th, the all-day schedule includes:

  • Agent pitch sessions throughout the day. (All participants will have the chance to sit face-to-face with up to three agents for five-minute sessions and pitch their ideas. You might even sign with an agent, as past participants have.)
  • An exciting lineup of panels and conversations with authors and other industry professionals.
  • Lunch with keynote speaker Judith Viorst.
  • And much more!
