This is the same conference as mentioned in the last email awhile ago, right? If it is, I think it's important to mention that the age group is 18 to 35, unless that's changed. As I said at the time, my past self (I was 16 when I started editing) would've been surprised and disappointed that a conference specifically aimed at youths didn't include me but did include people much older.
