Consider signing up for the David Foster Wallace Conference way in advance. There are so many advantages:
- Spend the money while you still have it before holidays in the winter and taxes in the spring approach
- It will be 100% ensured that you are going to the DFW Conference (Woo!)
- For the next week after, all the procrastinators in the world can register for $10 more. But space will fill up fast! Once we are at our maximum capacity, registration will close to the public and the chance of there being walk-up registration this year is slim.
- The first 25 people to register will have the chance to win Remembering David Foster Wallace.
The DFW Memorial Book, Remembering David Foster Wallace, was made at Illinois State University after DFW's memorial service in 2008. It contains remembrances written by Wallace's colleagues, students, friends, and fellow authors. It is a beautiful, thoughtful, and deeply personal series of reflections on Wallace and his very tangible impact on so many lives. It is not available for purchase anywhere, but we will be GIVING AWAY a copy to the first 25 attendees to register.
Registration opens November 1 through May 1 for the low price of:
- $85 for students, unemployed, part time, adjunct, or retired
- $100 for NTT, AP, Publishing Professional, K-12 Teachers
- $125 for TT and Tenured Faculty.
