Around Our Villages
 

Alison spent last week at the Hemingway Writers' Retreat in Piggott, Arkansas, where Hemingway wrote Hills like White Elephants, A Farewell to Arms, and several more of his well-known stories. Alison got to read her work in Hemingway's barn studio. Our own Pat Carr was the featured instructor, and we met a lot of talented writers, whom we look forward to seeing again. Find out more about the Hemingway Center here.

Speaking of Hemingway, Kenzie read her Hemingwayesque story at our coffee reception in Rogers, where we visited with area writers who had really interesting story ideas. We're excited about Rogers! Even if you missed the reception, you can jump into Kenzie's first workshop NEXT SATURDAY (15th). More info here.

The Village Writing School has a number of students from Holiday Island, so we were happy that a donor sponsored a hole in the HI Veterans' Day Golf Tournament in our name.

Twelve talented writers read their stories at the final workshop in our Crystal Bridges series.  We are preparing to publish these in the first Village Writing School anthology, entitled Bridging the Visual & Literary Arts.  If you attended one of the Crystal Bridges workshops, it's not too late to get your story in.
