Stories from the Heart V is sponsored by Story Circle Network, a national, non-profit membership organization dedicated to helping women explore their lives by exploring their stories. The conference will bring together women from around the country to celebrate the stories of women's lives and discover different modes for sharing our stories: through personal essays, autobiographical fiction, poetry, drama, dance, music, art and more.
We welcome vendors (including small publishers) who would like to sell books that they have written or published, paper products, print-related services, writing-related items, and hand-crafted items of interest to women.
If you'd like to apply for vendor space, go here.
Our vendor room will be open from noon-4pm & 5:30-7:30pm on Friday, February 5; 8:30am-12:30pm & 2-6pm on Saturday, February 6.

Judy will be selling her memoir (As If It Didn't Happen: A Story of Abuse, Multiple Personalities and Healing) and her hand-made baby blankets.
I wrote a memoir called, As If It Didn't Happen: A Story of Abuse, Multiple Personalities and Healing. Read more about it on the Silent Auction page.
I make baby blankets. They are large, with a custom look, and feature many popular colors and patterns. My University of Texas blankets continue to be a favorite. These blankets are always two layered with a tailored edge.
