I recently returned from Author Nation (formerly 20 Books to 50k Convention). It was the first time I attented since the change in leadership. The first thing I noticed was that the price for a ticket had doubled. The second thing I noticed was that the lineup had dramatically improved.
I’ll let you decide if those two things are connected.
For authors just starting out, it can be a tough call as to whether an event like this is worth it, even with the separate “tracks” each session is coded with (not yet published, published, and full-time income authors). So for your viewing pleasure, I published my thoughts on the conference, whether I thought it was worth it, and what changes I’ll be making based on what I learned there.
