Call for Submissions: JAWS CAMP Books & Browse Panel
Books & Browse 2025 Panel L to R: Panel organizer and moderator Michele Weldon, Maura Casey, Debbie Hines, Susan Page, Mary Annette Pember, Brigid Schulte, Miranda Spivack
JAWS’ annual Conference and Mentoring Program (CAMP) will be held Oct. 2-4, 2026 at the Hyatt Centric Delfina in Santa Monica, CA. Submissions are now being accepted for the Books & Browse panel showcasing JAWS authors.
Books must have a publication date between September 1, 2025 and October 10, 2026 to be considered. All panelists’ books need to be published by traditional, university or indie publishers; authors of self-published books can be included in the larger book signing event if their books are available to book stores.
An independent bookseller will be onsite to sell the authors’ books. Authors will not be required to bring their own books for sale. The panel will be followed by a book signing and reception with the authors.
