Author Workshops/Events

SUBMIT A PROPOSAL

Authors are encouraged to submit proposals for workshops / networking events.  There is no governing body judging proposals -- this is your collective conference retreat so it makes sense that you should get to decide what workshops you want.  All proposals submitted by the deadline will be offered up to registrants to indicate their potential interest in attending/participating.  The proposed workshops/events that have the most interest will get accepted.  Registrants with accepted conference proposals will be credited a discount on their registration.  You may submit up to two workshop proposals and two author event proposals. PROPOSAL SUBMISSION DEADLINE: October 18, 2015

 

Note: If you are proposing a workshop/event as a group, please only list the lead author and email in the name/contact portion of the form.  Please include the names of the other authors you would like to present with in the actual proposal.  Changes to the group can certainly be made after proposals are accepted (up until Nov 31), however, please note that drastic changes may affect your proposal's acceptance.  Please email us (hawaiiconferenceretreat [at] gmail [dot] com) if you have any changes to your proposal.

AUTHOR WORKSHOP PROPOSAL

Authors can submit individual or group proposals for business workshops (i.e. branding/rebranding, effectively using platforms like Instagram or Pinterest, navigating hybrid careers, unique promotions, etc.) or craft workshops.  Proposals for facilitated/moderated group sharing/brainstorming sessions with one collective goal in mind (i.e. sharing/brainstorming FB fan-engagement ideas, best financial tips, etc.) are also most welcome.  Please feel free to get as advanced and specific as you want as the authors attending are hungry for advanced topics that address the specific needs of bestselling authors.

Your proposal was submitted successfully! All proposals will be sent to the registrants to determine interest in September. If accepted, you will be notified at the end of September.

AUTHOR NETWORKING EVENT PROPOSAL

Authors can submit individual or group proposals for author networking events spanning pretty much anything under the sun -- i.e. a consortium where authors invite special guests, a meeting to launch a charity project, a collaborative research opportunity off site (i.e. Pearl Harbor), a writing exercise (i.e. peer feedback on blurbs), etc.  Events just for fun is also very much encouraged.  Want to go dancing?  Propose it!  :)  Fitness focus (i.e. morning yoga, running on the beach, etc.)?   Bring it!  Feel free to get wildly creative – we want authors to have FUN while networking.

Your proposal was submitted successfully! All proposals will be sent to the registrants to determine interest in September. If accepted, you will be notified at the end of September.

Authors submitting proposals must be registered for the conference by October 31, 2015
