Welcome to Blue Lake Christian Writers Conference

Step into a haven where tranquility meets creativity at Blue Lake, nestled within the lush Conecuh National Forest alongside a serene lake. This spring, join us in a place that not only feeds your spirit, soul, and mind but also nurtures your God-given talent for writing. Experience uplifting praise and worship, motivating speeches, and expert-led writing instruction.

At Blue Lake, you’ll enjoy the depth and diversity of a large writers’ conference but with a personal touch that makes all the difference. For example, you’ll receive 30-minutes of mentoring with faculty (excluding agents and publishers), compared to the standard short 15-minute appointments at most conferences. Whether you’re just beginning your writing journey or are an established author, our conference caters to both fiction and nonfiction enthusiasts. Our seasoned faculty of award-winning writers, publishers, and agents are eager to help you refine your craft, effectively market your work, and navigate the publishing landscape.

Customize Your Learning Experience:

• Engage deeply with our continuing morning classes.
• Explore specialized afternoon workshops covering a wide array of writing.
• Enjoy the rare opportunity for one-on-one meetings with our faculty to discuss your specific writing goals.

 We are like a retreat because our attendance is low, with about 100 people, but also because of our atmosphere. We’re also like a conference because we have excellent, experienced faculty who teach a wide range of writer-related classes including poetry. Plus you’ll have the chance to get to know publishers and agents on a first-name basis and schedule one-on-one appointments with them.
