  • "If you want a writers’ conference that helps you enrich your knowledge about writing and gives you opportunity to pitch prospective manuscripts to agents, try this one out. The hospitality is great, and you’ll always feel welcome."

    Jason Edward Fort

  • “Some force from somewhere in this complicated universe was kind enough to send me to this great annual writers’ conference. I went from taking notes on how to publish a novel at Killer Nashville to being on their published authors’ panels. I cannot say enough about Killer Nashville.”

    Linda Thorne

  • “Incredible interviews, personable and high caliber featured speakers, incredible attending writers and authors, interactive and valuable panels. Mingling with the attendees was such a highlight. I’ve made friendships that I know will be lasting.”

    Wendy Kendall

  • “Killer Nashville was incredibly helpful. Each panel gave me new insights into the writing, editing, and publishing process, so much so that I still keep some of my notes from the conference on hand at my writing desk! Each and every person I met there, whether author, panelist, or attendee, had some tidbit of wisdom or information to offer, and I am glad for the chance to have met so many wonderful writers.”
