Programs
Since our inception in 1986, we have offered a full week experience of classes, seminars in fiction, poetry, and nonfiction, one-on-one critiques, agent/editor meetings, faculty lunches, and opportunities for readings. We continue to offer this experience, open to writers of every level.
NOTE: Our registration, tuition, critique, and village hosting fees have NOT increased since
2005.
Additionally, we offer a significantly discounted rate for Ohio college, university, community college students and faculty; please see registration page for details.
