There is such an exciting buzz about The Historical Novel Society Conference this year. I am so looking forward to attending and meeting readers, fellow writers and publishing industry professionals.

Please forward information for the total cost of this conference. Thank You!
Michael,
The full package details are on the Programme and booking page. We don’t include accommodation in the conference price since people’s budgets are very varied, but we do have a fairly extensive list of suitable hotels.

What an excellent opportunity for would-be novelists, actual novelists and those passionate about fictionalised history. I’m so looking forward to it.
When is the full programme going to be announced? I have already signed up, but I am aware that some people won’t decide whether to book or not (no pun intended – honest!), until they’ve seen the programme, which I think is fair enough.
Any moment now, Sandra! The main programme is already up on the ‘Programme’ page and web-wizard Charlie Farrow is in the process of putting up the ‘click through’ information for the main panel sessions and optional workshops and talks. Likewise the pitch sessions schedule is almost ready to go live, and the detailed timetabling for the excursions will be on the website shortly. We’re almost there!…
Fantastic line up of talks and guests
I know that the banquet is sold out but can I still register for the rest of the conference?
Hi Elizabeth
You most certainly can still book for the rest of the Conference – please do while there’s still plenty of choice for the optional sessions!
Will there be a group booksigning like there is at the conferences in the States? If so, when will it take place, and where should my publisher send the books (and how many). I have the first 2 novels of my Marie Antoinette trilogy now in print (BECOMING MARIE ANTOINETTE and DAYS OF SPLENDOR, DAYS OF SORROW), so I plan to have some of each on hand, although DOS is the newest release (May 2012) as some readers may not have read the 1st novel. Many thanks!
I echo Leslie’s question about a group booksigning.
Is there any news yet about the questionnaire coming out? I’m worried I may have missed it.
I have forgotten which workshops I chose! Will there be any pre-conference info sent out or will it all be in packs on arrival?
Really looking forward to it by the way!
