NYRC 2013 is a free, online conference. Nobody involved is making any money. We're doing it for the love of books and writers.
Support our participants by enjoying their books. We've put together a Conference Book Shop in this tab along the top of the page where you can peruse (and buy/pre-order) their literary gems.
We've seen large amounts of essential writing and publishing advice in the past two days, and we're not done yet! To catch up with what you may have missed yesterday, see the NYRC 2013: Day 1 Wrap-Up post.
