NOTICE BEFORE PURCHASING:

This purchase will qualify you for one entry for the 2027 Silver Falchion Awards – after finalizing your purchase, your purchase confirmation email will include instructions on submitting your entry.

All four-day registrations for the Killer Nashville International Writers' Conference purchased before the due date for award submissions come with one free entry for the Silver Falchion Awards. Four-day registrations purchased after the due date for awards but before the current year's Killer Nashville International Writers' Conference will not be eligible for a free entry in the following year's Silver Falchion Awards. You do not need to add this item to your cart for that entry. Instructions for that entry will come to your email with your registration confirmation. If a Silver Falchion Award entry is purchased and then a four-day registration with a free entry is purchased afterward, the original award entry will not qualify for a refund.
