Sallie will be presenting a two-part workshop on the short story, “Writing What You Don’t Know: Fiction as Transformation – Workshop in Short Story” on Friday and Saturday from 9 – 11:30 am. [This workshop is now full].
On Saturday from 1:30 – 2:45 Sallie will be reading from Mending, her new collection of short stories, which is open to all registrants.
Mending was a “PW Pick of the Week” and in their Starred Review, Publishers Weekly wrote,
“Bingham’s work, including favorites such as “The Wedding” and “Sweet Peas,” remains sharp and deliciously unsettling, ripe for discovery by a new generation of readers.”
Other confirmed presenters include: Francine Prose, Danzy Senna, Tananarive Due, Lynnell Edwards, Krista Franklin, Kim Dana Kupperman and Katja Esson.
