We're thrilled for our 35th year! From one of our longtime friends: "As a past director, past board president, and 26-year veteran of the conference board, I can’t begin to tell you how happy I am to see it flourishing in younger hands. Congratulations to you all." ~Ginny Rorby
Last night’s reading full of laughter, commemoration, longing, unmet expectations, and as Douglas Manuel started the chant for, “New sh*t.” Thank you #mcwc2024. Looking forward to tonight’s readings.
Hope everyone was able to get breakfast & find their classrooms. Don’t forget to sign up for Open Mic, Anonymous Critique & Pitch Panel up front with our board members.
Pitch Panel sign-ups should be done before the end of lunch today, Thursday, August 1st 📖
