Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers Conference and Contest

May 4, 2015 By: Patricia

rmfw-bannerThe RMFW Conference

Otherwise known as Colorado Gold. And it really is.

Registration for the Colorado Gold Conference is now open. It will be at The Westin in Westminster, September 11-13. Jeffrey Deaver and Desiree Holt are keynote speakers. There are agents and editors, scads of experienced presenters, the most awesome book sale ever, and more.

Boogie on over to conference page to get all the details.

 

The Colorado Gold Contest

The deadline for entry into this prestigious contest for unpublished novelists is June 1st. Final judges are agents and editors. You can read all the submission requirements and hints on the RMFW website.

And if you missed Jennifer Kincheloe’s series of interview questions with former Colorado Gold winners, here are the links to those excellent posts. If they don’t inspire and motivate you to submit your work, I don’t know what will.

“Getting Critiqued in the Colorado Gold Contest—Winners Weigh In”

“Colorado Gold”

Are you an unpublished novelist who would like a good critique and a chance to become a finalist or winner in one of the best writing contests available? The deadline is June 1st.

Come on…you know you want to.

 

The RMFW Blog

I’m now a regular monthly contributor to the Rocky Mountain Fiction Writers blog as well as being its co-editor. I get to pontificate and opine on the first Monday of the month.

You can find me over there today with a post that piggy-backs on Mary Gillgannon’s Friday entry called “Your Book…Or Your Editor’s.”

My post is called “Your Book…or Your Critique Group’s?” Find the blog right here.

    Heading over!

Meet Patricia

I read, I write, I blog, and sometimes I do the laundry and cook. My 2014 novel, Dead Wrong, was a finalist in the thriller category of the 2015 Colorado Book Awards. Wishing Caswell Dead (Five Star/Cengage, December 20, 2017) is a historical mystery set in 1830s Illinois in the fictitious Village of Sangamon. The novel was a finalist for the 2018 Colorado Book Awards for General Fiction. My most recent release, In Defense of Delia (Five Star/Cengage, November 2022), is available in hardcover and will soon be available in ebook and trade paperback. Read More…
