The Lesley University Writers' Conference supports writers in a collaborative environment that will provide rich stimulation for anyone interested in fiction, nonfiction, children's book writing, and poetry. Enjoy rigorous workshops, guest speakers, faculty readings, craft lectures, book signings, and receptions — all of which will offer extraordinary opportunities to receive feedback on your work from established writers, share ideas, make connections, and take your writing to the next level. The conference is held on Lesley University's main campus, located within walking distance of Harvard Square. Applicants apply for admission to a fiction, nonfiction, poetry or children's book writing workshop. Participants may elect to live on campus or commute. |
