This February, the Association of Writers & Writing Programs Conference took place in Kansas City. Members of our RWW community traveled from across the country to speak at and attend panels, share their work at readings, and connect with other writers while tabling at the book fair. These photos are a small sampling of the conference excitement, including two panels that featured our RWW faculty: “The Fine Art of Craft Talking,” featuring Barrie Jean Borich, Wendy Call, Geffrey Davis, and Jenny Johnson, with Rick Barot moderating, and “Embodied Prosody, Embodied Sentences: Coping Mechanisms,” featuring Oliver de la Paz, torrin a. greathouse, Jenny Johnson, and Brian Teare.
Here's a collection of photos collected from RWW community members of their time at AWP 2024. We hope you enjoy looking through these mini reunions!
