Our 2022 live conference will be held in conjunction with Catholic Marketing Network’s Momentum ’22.
The only place to register for the conference is on the CMN website. The MOST IMPORTANT part is that you click “Catholic Writers Guild Track” when you sign up. That is how the CMN will know who is to get credit for that registration. Credit = $$$ (READ: This is how we will cover our expenses, so it is very important that you click you are interested in the Catholic Writers Guild Track!)
