6th RFW Annual Virtual Writers’ Conference
If you write Regency fiction, then you know how specific this corner of the writing world can be.
The details matter. The history matters. The tone, the conventions, the expectations—they all matter. And while that’s part of what makes writing in this time period so interesting and rewarding, it can also feel a little isolating at times.
What if, for one weekend, you didn’t have to explain any of that?
What if you could spend three days steeped in all-things Regency with other writers who are already well-versed in exactly what you’re trying to do whether you’re chasing that perfect ballroom scene, looking for a new way to tangle up a Regency-era mystery plot, or figuring out how to make a believable duke in a fantasy world?
That’s what the Regency Fiction Writers organization and their Annual Virtual Conference are built for.
What You’ll Find at RFW2026
Three days. One weekend.
Hundreds of writers who speak your language.
Over the course of one focused weekend, you’ll have interactive access to sessions designed specifically for Regency fiction writers—whether you’re just starting out or already published.
You can expect:
❖ Craft-focused workshops to strengthen your storytelling
❖ Research sessions that deepen historical accuracy
❖ Industry and publishing discussions tailored to your goals
❖ Opportunities to connect with other writers who share your interests
This isn’t a generic writing conference. RFW curates every session around the specific interests and needs of Regency writers.
What the RFW Conference Experience Is Actually Like
This virtual conference isn’t just about watching pre-recorded sessions—it’s about being part of a community that understands the work you’re doing.
Ask questions about historical nuance and get answers from people who care about the same details.
Hear how other writers approach structure, pacing, or publishing—and see what might work for you.
Step away from your usual routine and come back with new ideas, clearer direction, and renewed energy for your writing.
And if your schedule is tight, or life gets in the way, you won’t miss out.
RFW presents every session live and records them for later viewing, so you can watch (or rewatch) everything on your own time. And you’ll also get transcripts of the sessions and chat logs where attendees often get into lively side-discussions.
It’s More Than Just Workshops
Alongside the educational sessions, the conference also includes some of the community traditions that make it unique:
❖ The Annual Soirée — a chance to relax, connect, and enjoy the social side of the community where guests often attend in Regency costume
❖ The Silent Auction — a fun, interactive event that brings attendees together with a bit of a competitive edge
❖ Meet & Greet and Write & Drink — more fun ways to network and work together with other authors in a relaxed atmosphere
These moments are part of what turns the conference from a series of pre-recorded sessions into a shared experience.
