RootTech 2013 will be held March 21-23, 2013 in Salt Lake City. Over those three days, attendees will have plenty of lecture sessions to choose from. I though I’d share a list of presentations that may be of interest to you that relate to writing your family history. I’ve also included presentations related to sharing your family stories in ways other than writing.
And since RootsTech has incorporated Story@Home into their conference, there are plenty of offerings to go around. I’m sure you’ll find a few that will suit your fancy.

Thanks for posting this. I wish I could go. Do you think they'll have the files to download and read like last year?
I am actually an official blogger (at my other blog) for the conference so I know that they will be streaming some sessions live like they did last year. That's how I will be participating this year as I will not be able to attend either. I believe that the presentations the stream live will then be available to view at your leisure as they have done in the past, but I don't know that to be a fact at this time.
