Writers conference to be held online June 4–5

Since 1991, the Southern Christian Writers Conference has brought writers together for inspiration and instruction.

Though this year’s conference will look different, the SCWC is dedicated to providing the same resources and encouragement in a virtual event.

The 2021 SCWC will be held June 4–5 and will be streamed in the SCWC’s private Facebook group.

Twenty-three workshops will be offered, along with two keynote speakers — Todd Gerelds, author of “Woodlawn,” and Ginger Rue, author of the middle-grade Aleca Zamm novels.

All workshops and sessions will be available to view on-demand following the conference.
