About the RT Book Blogger Conference

Sarah from Smart Bitches and Jay from Joyfully Jay are collaborating to organize a one-day conference for book bloggers. So many bloggers attend RT each year that it’s an excellent opportunity to talk with one another about the issues we face, large and small, and to learn from one another.

We hope you’ll join us and share your ideas and perspective. It won’t be awesome without you.

We’ve been working on a schedule that will include discussions and information about the issues we face whether we’ve been reviewing online for years or have just started book blogging. Topics include technology, user experience, revenue opportunities, working with publicists and other people in publishing, blog tours and blog tour operators, organization and efficiency and more. And, if you have a suggestion, we’d love to hear your input!

The RT Book Blogger Conference is a separate event from the RT BookLovers Convention, which is to say, registration for the Book Blogger Conference does not include registration to the RT Convention, and vice versa.

But! If you’re planning to attend RT, you can visit RTConvention.com to sign up, register, and get ready!
