Registration has opened for Hub City's 2008 Writing in Place conference Aug. 1-3 at Wofford College. Organizers will take up to 72 students this year in this intensive writing conference that appeals to both beginners and professionals. Tommy Hays, author of the novel The Pleasure Was Mine is the keynote speaker. Published novelists, poets, essayists, and literary critics lead a series of workshops over three days that include intense instruction, challenging exercises, and an opportunity for feedback. Registrants must sign up for one of three four tracks: poetry, fiction, screen-writing and creative non-fiction. Our instructors will expect you to write during this conference, and we have planned a weekend with "downtime" for that purpose. We also want you to have time for networking with faculty and new friends. Visit www.hubcity.org to register, for more info, to view a list of faculty, and for a conference schedule. Hub City publishes two kinds of books: those that educate people about the place they live, and literary works (poetry, fiction, and creative non-fiction) by emerging authors in this region. The organization generally publishes two to three titles a year but has published as many as four and as few as one. For more information, visit www.hubcity.org. (Image provided by Hub-Bub.)
