2016 Conference

2016 Keynote Address: Susan Dennard!

The Ch1Con team is absolutely delighted to announce our keynote speaker for the 2016 Chapter One Young Writers Conference: Susan Dennard!

susan_square1Susan is the New York Times bestselling author of both the YA steampunk series Something Strange & Deadly (HarperCollins) and the new YA fantasy series Witchlands (Tor)–the first installment of which, Truthwitch, just came out last week and premiered at #4 on the New York Times bestseller list!! (And got a starred review from Publishers Weekly, no less.)

Before settling down as a full-time novelist and writing instructor, Susan traveled the world as a marine biologist. When not writing these days, she can be found hiking with her dogs, exploring tidal pools, or earning bruises at the dojo. Her writing is represented by Joanna Volpe of New Leaf Literary & Media, Inc. 

Susan will be giving the keynote address and participating in our special “ask anything” panel at Ch1Con 2016. Plus: in honor of speaking at the conference, Susan is pleased today to give away a SIGNED copy of Truthwitch!
