Academic Editing May Coffee Chat: Conferences

May 7th @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm EDT

If you’re an academic, attending conferences in your area is a great way to present your work, talk to people doing similar research, and enjoy a night’s sleep in crisp hotel sheets. But as editors, how can we make attending a conference just as enjoyable—and maybe drum up some work? Register to join the Academic Editing Chapter’s May Coffee Chat on Tuesday, May 7, at 10 a.m. PDT / 1 p.m. EDT, to discuss:

  • How to choose a conference to attend (size, focus, expertise)
  • Ways to network and make meaningful connections with authors and publishers
  • Materials to take along to help these new connections stick, and ways to follow up post-conference
  • Conference experiences we’ve had, including what made the experiences positive (or not)

We’ll share stories, tips, and maybe even some travel information. We’re excited to see you there!
