Ticket prices are $130 for writers for the full conference (this includes five workshops and the Open House on the second day) or $32 per workshop. Ticket prices are $215 for industry professionals for the full conference.
Tickets for the Open House on May 23, where Chuck Palahniuk is speaking, are $10 at the door and $8 for students.
