KidLitCon 09

For authors, illustrators, editors, and publishers in the area of Children's and Young Adult literature, the October 17th Kidlitosphere Conference in Arlington, VA offers an incredible opportunity to learn more about online reviewers, blog book tours, blog writing, and social media. Participants will also talk to book reviewing bloggers one-on-one about their books in a Meet the Author session. The dinner gives everyone a chance to socialize, talk, network, and collaborate.

And all for a low $100 registration fee, which includes breakfast and dinner on Saturday.

Featured sessions for authors/illustrators include:

* It´s Not All About Your Book: Writing Ideas for Author Blogs
* Social Networking for Fun (and Profit?).
* Building a Better Blog: Best Practices, Ideas, and Tips
* Building a Better Online Presence
And more.

Time: 8:00-5:00 p.m
Attending authors will have the opportunity to set up a table and show their books to bloggers. This is a great opportunity to connect with the blogging community and promote fall titles.
