Dallas-Fort Worth Writers Conference

Dallas-Fort Worth Writers Conference DFWCon is an annual event sponsored by the non-profit DFW Writers' Workshop. It's the premier multi-genre conference in the Southwest.

The DFW Writers Conference, or DFWCon, is an excellent opportunity to hone your craft as a writer, learn more about the publishing world, and network with other writers and publishing industry professionals. We bring in literary agents from around the country to meet with Texas writers, and we provide dozens of writing and business classes. The conference is a program of the DFW Writers' Workshop, a non-profit writers group that's been operating in the Metroplex for 40 years.
