Different Choices for Different Lives

 

Since 1999, Arts & Letters has sponsored workshops in Milledgeville (home of Flannery O’Connor) and on the campus of Georgia College & State University.  Writers from as far away as Portland, Oregon, and Geneva, Switzerland, have joined our community.  In May 2005, the workshops will continue to offer opportunities for writers that provide different choices for different lives.

 

Coming in 2005
