for writers of contemporary
and supernatural fiction
and their fans
Heros writing stories of bravery!







Called “the conference with heart” by Publisher’s Weekly, UTOPiAcon, the trailblazing convention for fiction writers and readers, grew ten times in size in its first four years.



UTOPiAcon tapped into the massively popular and community-propelled self-publishing audience in 2011, a market that was transforming young adult and new adult books into worldwide franchises that included film, television, toys and more.

The sci-fi, fantasy, paranormal, contemporary lit, and romances that are being devoured by readers and fans everywhere have spawned a whole new generation of writers poised to transform the industry with fans rooting them on and screaming for more.


No more is it the traditionally published author versus the unknown independent writer. Today a world of hybrid authors and immersive multi-media is being driven by passionate and collaborative people looking to create a lifestyle that formerly didn’t exist.
