The Virtual Conference

The 2020 Nebula Conference Online is a year-round virtual extension of the yearly Nebula conference. Focusing on content relevant to professionals in the genre, attendees will have access to the 2020 live and recorded career management, professional development, and expert knowledge panels, weekly writing dates, a reading series, and live workshops. Registration in the 2020 Nebula Conference Online also includes live Q&A sessions, access to the slack community, virtual room parties, and a subscription to SFWA’s quarterly magazine, The Bulletin.

You do not need to be a member of SFWA to attend. We encourage anyone with a connection to the field to join us. The purpose of the year-round Nebula Conference Online is to nurture writers regardless of publication status.

This conference is accessible and we will strive to make this event comfortable, safe, and engaging for all attendees.

In addition, as part of SFWA’s pledge to support Black Lives Matter, in the month of June 100% of registrations for the 2020 Nebula Convention Online content will go directly to the Carl Brandon Society and the Black Speculative Fiction Society.

We have also created a matching program for the 2020 Nebula Convention Online so that each registration purchased this month creates a seat for a Black writer. If you are a Black Writer, please email events@sfwa.org for instructions on how to register.
