TAA’s conference program features three writing tracks:

Academic Writing Track
Learn tips on how to plan your writing projects for maximum productivity; create writing that is clearer, better organized, and more compelling; effectively contact and work with publishers; and develop and maintain a sustainable writing habit.

Rounding out the program are sessions on marketing your academic works, opportunities in self-publishing, and effective content management strategies. Learn how to get started with social media, secure a return on your independent publishing investment, explore software tools, and develop the best practices for content management.

In addition, the conference offers one-on-one mentoring with industry experts, meaningful networking opportunities, and free professional head shots to help you build your marketing profile.
