Creative writers of all genres from Middle Tennessee and beyond are invited to attend MTSU Write’s annual Creative Writing Conference on October 22-23. The events on Friday October 22 will be virtual and on Saturday October 23 will be in person on the MTSU campus. Writers of all skill levels are encouraged to attend.

The theme of this year’s conference is ‘Writing to Heal’ and will include workshops and presentations exploring what it means to heal – ourselves, our relationship to the environment and to others, as well as our own writing practices – especially in light of isolation and loss MTSU Write director Amie Whittemore has recruited a range of nationally recognized writers, many of whom are from the Nashville area.

The conference’s opening address on Saturday will be delivered by Tiana Clark, a former Nashville resident and alumnus of MTSU Write, known nationally for her writing in The New Yorker, Poetry Magazine, The Atlantic, The Washington Post, Virginia Quarterly Review, Kenyon Review, Oxford American, and many other publications. A 2019 National Endowment for the Arts Literature Fellow, Clark is the author of the collection of poetry I can’t talk about trees without the blood (University of Pittsburgh Press, 2018) and Balance (Bull City Press, 2016, two award-winning poetry books. A graduate of TSU (BA) and Vanderbilt (MFA), Clark is currently Grace Hazard Conkling Writer-in-Residence at Smith College.
