The conference occurs during the MFAW-VT residency and includes solitary time for writing; works-in-progress sessions to critique each other’s work; workshops run by you, our creative participants; evening readings and common-room gatherings; and the unveiling of the new issue of Clockhouse, our alumni-run, national literary journal.  We also join the MFAW program for the presentation and Q&A of their visiting professional and for the reading of the Visiting Writer.  (This year’s visitors are writer Nick Flynn and literary agent Samantha Shea.)  What’s a bit more intangible–but equally at the heart of the week–is just what we all remember about our Goddard MFA experience:  The impromptu and seemingly around-the-clock sharing of writing, laughter, and more writing.
