I loved everything!

It was so much fun to come and hang out with fellow Catholic writers.

– Caroline K

I love feeling that I’m not alone as a Catholic writer in a very secular world!

– Eileen W

So impressed with the ease of use!

Loved the discussion of mature content! And the fun of speed networking.

– Megan E

Honestly all of it was fantastic

and you guys had a lot of really excellent speakers!! I even won a book πŸ’–

 – Jessica

Make it a two day event!

There were things I was interested in attending and couldn’t because things were happening simultaneously. It seems like there is enough content that it could be spread out over two days.

– Sr. Allison G

I loved all the expo booths and things that you could do.

Plus just watching with my camera off. That was very handy for me.

– Corrine O

I loved how easy it was

to just jump in, be inspired, chat, feel part of the community, and the option to not be on camera if we didn’t want to be. Everyone was very kind and speakers mature in their faith; all inspiring stuff.

– Mel

It’s an utter lie…

I have been tamping down my enjoyment of fiction writing for 15-ish years…. always felt like there was something “more important” I should be doing. This community is quickly showing me that is an utter lie.

– Melissa K

Legend Fiction has certainly brought back the joy and fun of writing for me!

– Mary Rose K

I love getting to connect with likeminded writers from around the world.

I lost my love of writing during college, but got it back when I just started writing for fun with no worries about anything else.

– Amelia Leedom

I made some good friends and conversations!

– Convention Attendee

I love the supportive, encouraging, and creative community fostered by Legend Haven.

– Mary

What is LegendHaven?

The epic, online convention for fun, faith, and fiction – mostly for Catholic and Orthodox readers, writers, and all pop culture nerds.

What kind of person is this for?

Catholica and Orthodox Christians. Our attendees are passionate about their faith and about accompanying other people. Or they are Catholic-curious, or Orthodox-curious. We welcome anyone who has a great attitude, loves fiction, and wants to nerd out with friends.

Is LegendHaven free?

Not this year. Our first two years, LegendHaven was free. In 2024, we’re building it bigger and better, and that means more costs. So we’re making the entrance fee ludicrously low so everyone can get in.

Who manages LegendHaven?

LegendHaven is produced by Dominic de Souza, a cradle-Catholic who’s first love is writing fantasy novels, playing games, and doing creative things with friends. 

LegendHaven is a collaborative project, brought to you by three online communities: 

  • LegendFiction: The epic writing community for faith-inspired fiction authors
  • HaloZest: The magazine for fast, fun, faith-inspired stuff by Catholic nerds
  • SmartCatholics: Courses and community for Catholics to learn faithfully, and get smarter.

 

Does LegendHaven work on my device?

The convention will only work on your desktop browser. Functionality is limited on your smartphone – unless you toggle the ‘desktop mode’.

Besides, when you enter a new world, use the biggest screen you have!

Does LegendHaven have safety features?

Yes, we all work to take care of each other. We have a carefully crafted code of conduct (3 rules!). High-school students under 18 must provide a guardian’s email for contact reasons.
