Abstract
Creative Writing Fellows will offer logistical support before and during the Colgate Writers' Conference (June 8-14, 2025). They will also participate in the conference as members of a workshop. Starting in mid-June, three fellows will continue to work on the conference, analyzing participant feedback and helping to plan for 2026. They will also work closely with a creative writing professor to revise, polish, and submit for publication a piece of writing begun during the conference. Post-conference, the other two fellows will begin helping with the research, marketing, and publicity associated with the Living Writers course and series.
