CBCA conference

Imagine this imagine that!

The CBCA conference took place on the weekend at the Menzies Hotel in Sydney.

We were there displaying our books in the trade exhibit and showing off our new logo.

The conference had been sold to publishers as a "no frills" conference in a bid to move away from the expense of the larger venues and provide a more intimate environment.

The vibe from the conference was terrific. The delegates seemed to enjoy the program rushing to queue for signed books during the breaks.

Jo Oliver signed copies of her latest book Tatiara. 

The trade exhibit ran smoothly. Nobody seemed to mind the smaller venue. If anything it allowed for a far more amiable conference.

Congratulations to Margaret Hamilton for her dedication in seeing this conference through to its fruition.
