Speaking at a conference, and even submitting a proposal, can be
intimidating or hard. Luckily, some great, experienced speakers are
volunteering their time by holding CFS Office Hours.
Whether you want to propose a talk and want feedback on your idea,
proposal wording, talk title, or just advice on how to deal with
nerves, there are three office hours slots scheduled over the next few
weeks.
