If you’re at Author Nation be sure to look for us. Several members of the Draft2Digital team will be at Author Nation 2024 in Vegas in November 2024.

But, you might be asking: “What IS Author Nation?”

Do you mean besides it being the largest indie author conference in the world?

It’s a place to learn, to connect, to network, and to grow. But more than that, this year the theme is “Unite Your Nation.”

Learn about new technology and establish a robust support network of mentors, peers, and readers to level up your author career.

To enhance your Author Nation experience, Author Nation has developed specific tracks for you to follow. These tracks are designed to optimize your time and financial investment, guiding you to the next level with a curated approach to navigating all that Author Nation has to offer.

The tracks cover various domains, including Craft, Marketing, Advertising, Business & Finance, Transmedia, Production & Workflow, and Mindset, Wellness, & Productivity.

Led by industry experts and accomplished authors, Author Nation’s lectures, workshops, and discussions are tailored to help you build a comprehensive system that supports your best life through writing.

Here’s a handy list that might help you understand just a little about what’s to come.
