"The conference was WONDERFUL!!!!!! I love everything — from the outstanding quality of the presenters, to the creative special features (roundtables; having an expert from the region come in to talk; the mentoring sessions etc). My absolute favorite however, is the sense you guys create of everyone coming together as a real family. It's been only two years and I already feel that I'm attending a not-to-be missed annual family reunion."
— Janet Belsky, author of Experiencing the Lifespan, which won a 2008 Textbook Excellence Award

"I thought it was a good conference — very productive because of all the interactivity and spontaneity, such as having the award winners answer questions about their textbook writing and publishing experiences. There were real working sessions in direct response to the needs of the people who attended and excellent opportunities for networking."
— Mary Ellen Lepionka, publisher, Atlantic Path Publishing
