In its 27th year, Write on the Sound (WOTS) is an intimate (200 max), high quality, affordable
writers’ conference that focuses on the craft of writing. A variety of classes are offered for all levels
and interests. Special features include pre-conference half-day critique workshops, a keynote speaker,
one-on-one manuscript critique appointments, a themed writing contest, book sales featuring books
by conference presenters, a meet-and-greet reception and book signing event, and more.
A choice of workshops is offered in four time segments on Saturday & Sunday. WOTS
provides a mix of sessions on how-to, motivational topics, various genre, and specialty subjects.
Presenters are paid an honorarium (2011: $134 for 75 minute, $161 for 90 minute workshops).
Lodging and transportation are only paid for the Keynote speaker, but a stipend is available to those
traveling more than 100 miles. WOTS is held at the Frances Anderson Center (Edmonds’ Parks &
Recreation facility), 700 Main Street, Edmonds WA, with outstanding views of Puget Sound and the
Olympic Mountains.
