WriteAngles Writing Conference

WriteAngles Conference is a full day writing conference with 25 workshops and panels, an open mic and keynote speaker Franny Choi.

The conference theme, inspired by Tiffany Yates Martin’s quote from The Thicket of Thorns: Stories Grow, suggests exploring writing as a tool for resilience, justice, and forging connections in our polarized era. WriteAngles brings together writers for workshops, roundtable conversations, networking, and inspiration.

A keynote speaker of national note, Franny Choi, whose work supports the theme, will launch the day’s activities, which include programming for writers at all levels of development and appointments with literary agents.

WriteAngles is by writers for writers in the vibrant literary region of western Massachusetts. In line with Straw Dog Writers Guild’s mission, presenters represent a diversity of age, race/ethnicity, and gender identity. Presenters will receive an honorarium, and a generous scholarship program will welcome lower-income participants.
