Comments from our latest survey

            I enjoyed Van King and Pam Nelson very much.

           Great presentations. I especially liked the legal guy – Ed Fenno.

            Really appreciate variety and updated topics for this workshop.

            I enjoyed today’s program and appreciate all the work that went into making it a success.

            This was a great event. I learned so much and made some great new friends / connections. Thanks!

            I am not a copy editor but a writer, studying journalism (at night) and writing fiction. This conference was helpful to learn changes in the industry, digital media law, and headline writing. Many things were over my head because I don’t work in the business, but I was still able to glean knowledge for myself as well as identify areas I need to learn more.
