For hand-picked book writers who can afford and/or tax-deduct expensive conferences and seminars the Maui Writers' Conference meets every August. The retreat helps you with whatever writing you have in progress. At the conference you meet with authors and publishers, although it's possible to meet some at the retreat. Plays and poems aren't included. Screenplays were phased out. Spouses and other guests are invited to the opening-night buffet and should also be invited to open mikes. Conference evaluation forms invite feedback. I didn't attend the conference but I met attendees in the halls. I brought home notes to work with. Books are too much effort but they still hope to see me again.
