Final Call for Panel Participation, New Layout Map, Exciting Merch

Hey All You Lovely People! Cardyn and I (Heather) are sending you so much love and light right now. 

We have a shorter-than-typical post from me today! Panel and mini-pod interviews info. The latest update to the event layout/map. Merch link. If you did not read the great big blog post before this one, please do so, it answers just about anything you might still be wondering about this event. I didn't call it The Big Update for nothing!

Pretty soon I will have the program schedule and info up as well. If you look at the top of the website you'll see "2025 Program" and that's where it will be.

Thank you for all of your kindness and enthusiasm! Happy Easter and Ostara and Spring and Passover and all the things - whatever you celebrate. Renewal is a dream to be devoutly wished right now.

SUNDAY 7/20 IS OUR PANEL & WORKSHOP DAY
You can sign up to be on a panel. The deadline for this is April 30th - that's 15 days from now! 
We have a variety of panels you could be on and a few of them still have space. None of our closed door romance authors have signed up for that panel yet!

Also - you don't HAVE to be on a panel, but it would be great if you attended the panel sessions on Sunday.

We also have six slots for MINI Podcast Interviews with Erin P.T. Canning for her podcast Embracing Fiction Author Journey Podcast.

The link to the sheet that includes sign-ups both of these things is here:

MERCH
We also have started designing merch for TWWBF25. Please consider buying some merch to support Write Women. Share the link with friends and family and those who maybe want to attend but can't and love supporting bookish events. So far I have some TWWBF25 shirts, romance author and reader shirts,  and other fun stuff. I will continue to add to it in the coming days. I plan on shirts for other genres. Probably some mugs. If you want a shirt before the fest, I suggest ordering no later than mid-June. It takes a couple/few weeks. If a shirt you want isn't available in a particular style or on a particular item, let me know and I will try to add it!

THE MAP THE MAP THE MAP
The map looks tidy, but when doing it, it can make ya dizzy! HAHA! I think I implemented all requested changes and fixed a couple of boo-boos. Please let me know ASAP. This map is also subject to change! Things happen, the world is imperfect.
