From Aug 25 to 27, join New England’ creative community of published authors, educators, and industry professionals as they explore all aspects of the writing life at the Hollyhock Writers Conference in New Bedford, Mass. Over this three-day conference, take part in discussions about the literary world of creative writing, poetry, and non-fiction; attend panels to learn tips on finding an agent and writing query letters; get your hands dirty in workshops and master classes; and hear professional writers share their work.
Hollihock welcomes writers in any phase of their literary life, from beginners intimidated by the blank page, to published professionals looking for a network of fellow creative thinkers to share ideas.
Keynote Speakers include Jabari Asim and Ken Liu.
