Located at the base of the Rocky Mountains, only 50 miles north of Denver, Fort Collins is college town frequently highlighted on "Best Places to..." lists. Home to 13 microbreweries including New Belgium ( creators of Fat Tire) and Odell Brewing Company (90 Shilling), Fort Collins is sometimes referred to as the Napa Valley of beer.

Description
Join Northern Colorado Writers for a roaring good time at the Fort Collins Hilton, for the 10th annual writer’s conference March 27-28, 2015. Hearken back to a golden age of writing, when rules were challenged and words flowed like jazz music and champagne. Mingle with authors of all levels and genres. Meet with agents and editors. Learn the craft from industry professionals. And, in honor of a decade of NCW conferences, be inspired by our very first keynote speaker, LeAnn Theiman, who is now a member of the Speaker Hall of Fame and bestselling author. Don’t miss some of NCW’s favorite past presenters, who return to razzle and dazzle their way through classes and workshops. Polish your prose, throw caution to the wind, and write with abandon!
