    The Eighth Annual Golden Crown Literary Society Conference will be held in Minneapolis, June 13 - 17, 2012 at the Doubletree Hilton Hotel in Bloomington, Minneapolis-South.  All readers, writers, editors, publishers and friends/supporters of lesbian fiction are welcome to attend.

    This year will be a particularly great year, as we start moving around the country to cities where there are known communities of writers and readers who will welcome us.  Minneapolis is no slouch in this arena, with many well known writers in the area, not to mention a fab-u-lous community of women who are helping organize the conference.

    Our keynote speaker for 2012 will be Jewelle Gomez !!  The eighth Annual Goldie Awards will be on Saturday June 16th - always a surprise or two awaiting us all there !

    If you have never been to a GCLS Conference (called "the Con"), you will get a special welcome inviting you to join with other "Con Virgins" to participate in a pre-conference event as well as to various occasions during the Con.  It's an experience you don't want to miss !

    Watch this site for more information about the Con, as it becomes available.

    Vendor Tables are still available for the GCLS Conference.  In addition, the GCLS offers many different sponsorship packages and levels, including the opportunity to help someone attend that may not have the finances to come. Our scholarship packages are many this year and cheaper than last year due to the lower price of our new venue.
