WCWF 2022 Was a Hit. Did You Have Fun?

It feels like we planned for the in-person Wine Country Writers’ Festival for–EV–errrrrrr!

Finally, on September 23 and 24, 2022, it all came true and it was fantastic.

The energy was palpable as we talked writing, craft, and business for the first time in what seems like a lifetime. There were readings, talks, lessons, music, food, and wine… A little of everything to get us recharged to take over our creative endeavors.

The same venue at the Penticton Lakeside Hotel and Conference Centre has been booked for next year and we decided to expand the Festival to include Sunday.

Save the dates: September 22, 23, 24, 2023.

Thank you to all our sponsors, guests, and presenters. Make sure you subscribe to the newsletter so you don’t miss any important dates or information.

Here are a few pix from the 2022 Festival!
