WriteAngles Conference!
October 18 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm
$150
Join Straw Dog Writers Guild for WriteAngles, the only writers conference in Western Massachusetts. Choose from 20 different workshop and panels to attend during this full day conference, held at Greenfield Community College. Sign up to have an individual meeting with an agent. But most importantly, spend time with other writers in your community who care about writing as much as you do.
The year’s conference theme, inspired by Tiffany Yates Martin’s quote from The Thicket of Thorns: Stories Grow, suggests exploring writing as a tool for resilience, justice, and forging connections in our polarized era. WriteAngles brings together writers for workshops, roundtable conversations, networking, and inspiration.
A keynote speaker of national note, Franny Choi, whose work supports the theme, will launch the day’s activities, which includes programming for writers at all levels of development and appointments with literary agents.
WriteAngles is by writers for writers in the vibrant literary region of western Massachusetts. In line with Straw Dog Writers Guild’s mission, presenters represent a diversity of age, race/ethnicity, and gender identity. Presenters will receive an honorarium, and a generous scholarship program will welcome lower-income participants.
