Wanda Dyson
 | | Name: Wanda Dyson
Position: Appointment Coordinator
Conference Task(s): Schedule conferee appointments with Editors and Agents, schedule critiques for conferees with authors Website: http://www.WandaDyson.com Contact Email: Wanda@acfw.com
Hailed by critics as an author that "gives up none of the pace and terror of the best secular crime thrillers while keeping a strong story of faith at its center," Wanda is in the process of writing the second book in the new Prodigal Recovery Series. "Shepherds Fall" the first book in the new series, will be released by Random House/Waterbrook next Spring. When she's not writing crime thrillers, Wanda can be found scheduling appointments for several Christian Writers conferences, riding her horses, raising rare "Silkies," dozing in the hammock with a good book, or taking her daughter four-wheeling.
Wanda and her daughter, Jayme, live on a 125 acre farm with 13 horses, a pony, 2 rabbits, 3 dogs, 4 barn cats, and somewhere around 60 chickens. Farm fresh eggs anyone? |

Position: Conference Staff Coordinator
Conference Task(s): For the faculty, I handle their hotel arrangements, pre-conference information gathering, and basically do whatever is possible to help their conference experience go smoothly. While at the conference, I coordinate the registration for the faculty and answer their questions, give them help where needed and any other jobs which keep things well "oiled."

I'm a mom of three, wife for 15 years to the love of my life and slightly nuts enough to have worked all the conferences. I've been a member of ACRW/ACFW when we had less than 100 members and have watched this amazing organization grow. I live in central Florida |

Position: Conference Coordinator
Conference Task(s): Overall conference logistics. Website: Contact Email: sydney@acfw.com
This is the fourth conference I'm coordinating for ACFW. It has been gratifying and wonderful to work with the board and committee members to foster the tremendous growth and professionalism of this conference. To see the enthusiasm of new and returning conferees makes everything worthwhile. The pleasure of experiencing a successful event is what we planners live for and thrive on. I am honored to work with this organization.
I recently relocated from St. Paul, MN to Greater Chicagoland in Illinois, to pursue fresh perspective, new opportunities, and happiness. However, I look forward to welcoming you to my former stomping grounds in Minnesota. It's a wonderful location, the committee has put together a tremendous agenda, and I'm convinced this will be the best ACFW conference yet! See you there. |
