Description
At last year’s DogCon we announced that we were acquiring a beach house writing resort. This year, we’re inviting you to come see Broadkill Writers' Resort, just one block from the beach on Delaware Bay, nestled in the Prime Hook Wildlife National Wildlife Refuge.
The weekend will feature:
- bonfires, presentations
- a tour of the Dogfish Head Brewery
- an award ceremony
- a live Instigation by Michael A. Arnzen
- and more! For the full schedule please visit the DogCon5 info page at http://rawdogscreaming.com/dogcon/.
AUGUST 21 UPDATE: Add-on madness!
Special guest Beverly Bambury provides the following presentations for DogCon5 attendees:
Class 1 - Social Media for Authors (even Misanthropic Authors)
No matter how you're published, it's a tough world out there having to constantly promote your work. Authors have to do more than ever before, and one of the least natural efforts for many is social media. This session will focus mostly on Twitter and Facebook, but other things will be discussed, such as Goodreads, Pinterest, Snapchat, and blogging. And if you actually hate people and want to think about being social as little as possible? Well, this session can help with that, too.
Class 2 - Building a quality review and promotional pitch list
Asking people to review and promote your book is most authors' least favorite thing. Sure, we all have our usual suspects, friends, and family, but how do we find new people? How do you find the right kind of reviewers and blogs? Not sure what to say when you finally find them? This useful, hands-on workshop will let you leave DogCon with a list of appropriate reviewers and websites, as well as a query letter template to use when asking for reviews and other promotional opportunities. Being your own publicist has never been so easy!
Important: to get the most out of this session, attendees should bring an internet-enabled device for searching and should be able to create a document for their list on the spot, whether digital or pen-and-paper.
If attendees wish to brush up on their search skills prior to the workshop, Google offers a free class on power searching here: https://coursebuilder.withgoogle.com/sample/preview.

FAQs
Is this only for authors and editors affiliated with the various imprints of Raw Dog Screaming Press?
No! Anyone who has an interest in literature, art, music, fringe culture, or whatever...come hang out!
How much food is covered by my ticket purchase?
Some snacks, beverages, and meals, but you will need to plan for some dining yourself. Also, we are not providing alcoholic drinks. You are welcome to bring food and drinks you are comfortable with (yes, that includes alcohol!) for yourself or to share. A full kitchen will be at your disposal.
Will food options be available for somebody with my dietary needs?
If you have special requests please let us know in advance, and we will attempt to meet your needs. A fully equipped kitchen will also be available if you would prefer to store and prepare your own food.
