The Port Townsend Writers Conference
Port Townsend, Washington, USA
Mid JulyDescription
The Port Townsend Writers’ Conference has been since 1974 at the heart of the thriving Pacific Northwest literary scene. With a focus on community and rigorous attention to craft, the Conference offers morning workshops, afternoon workshops, residencies, guided freewrites, and a vibrant readings and lectures series presented by vital, contemporary writers. Each Conference participant picks one primary faculty member with whom to spend the week. Some faculty focus on creating new work, others focus on making existing work new. Mornings are spent in workshop sessions with faculty and fellow students. Each participant receives a private critique session with their faculty member during the conference. Whether you’re new to writing, and seeking an inspirational environment to create new work looking for advanced post-MFA revision workshops or simply desire to renew and recharge yourself in a writing retreat, the Port Townsend Writers’ Conference gives you the craft and connections to make breakthroughs in your work.
