WELS Women Writers Conference

I am thrilled to (learn and therefore) announce that there will be a WELS Women Writers’ Conferences April 24–25, 2020. Yay!

Here is the official WELS announcement about it. WELS Women’s Ministry is partnering with Northwestern Publishing House to host it in Waukesha, Wisconsin.

I’m afraid I’m not very aware of the speakers. Sorry! But I’ll list them here and, if I can find a link to published work, I’ll add them to my list of Living Lutheran Authors. 🙂

Actually, I’ll link them here and maybe give the briefest of summaries here of what I find. Right? I should feed your interest while I’ve got the chance to do so!

• Linda Buxa (Family devotions, Bible studies)
• Amber Albee Swenson (Bible Studies)
• Jes Woller (children’s book)
• Valerie Bodden (Editor, 300 children’s non-fiction! Christian fiction)
• Mary Schmal (Wrote a creative writing curriculum & historical fiction for readers 12 through adult)
• Shannon Ishizaki (Founder of Orange Hat Publishing)
• Linda Jane Niedfeldt (historical fiction)
• Amanda Rose
• Katy Goede
• Katie Martin (devotional)
• Rev. Randy Hunter (so it’s not quite entirely a line of female speakers!)
• Julie Wietzke 
• Nicole Balsa
• Laurie Gauger (hymnist)
• DeLyn Wagenknecht
• Naomi Schmidt (Bible study)
• Amy Elmore
• Rev. Ray Schumacher

I’m excited for you WELS Women Writers! Wishing you an excellent time!

Meanwhile, there may still be a few spots at the “Here I Write” Lutheran writers’ conference so be sure to check that out, too.
