2007 Book Passage Travel Writers & Photographers Conference

The wonderful California indie bookstore Book Passage will be once again hosting their Travel Writers & Photographers Conference, this August 16-19. Faculty at this year’s conference include Don George (Global Travel Editor, Lonely Planet), Catherine Hamm (Travel Editor, LA Times), Isabel Allende (author of InĂ©s of My Soul), Jamaica Kincaid (author of Among Flowers: A Walk in the Himalaya), Robert Holmes (award-winning travel photographer), our very own Rolf Potts, and many more.

The four-day schedule is packed with panel discussions, interviews, workshops, and master classes in travel writing and photography, all concluded with a champagne and chocolate reception. You can learn from the best in the business, and also get to spend a weekend in the beautiful Bay Area.

The conference is a might pricey at $635, but it’s widely regarded as the best of its kind. To be a part of it, you can sign up here.
