| Description: | Tired of stealing time to write? Buy yourself a whole week. Imagine: seven days to live inside the book you want to write; seven days to work and rework your poems; seven days surrounded by people who grapple with sentences, who fall in love with books; seven days to soak in the salt air, to contemplate the waters of Casco Bay. At the Stonecoast Writers' Conference students have the chance to work closely with a distinguished faculty composed of award-winning writers. We offer intensive workshops in each of four genres: poetry, short fiction, novel, and nonfiction. Daily lectures and nightly readings give students the opportunity to meet other writers and to explore work that expands and challenges our understanding of literature. Conference highlights:
