Writer's Institute

The 2007 Writer’s Institute annual conference will be held Friday through Sunday, April 27-29.

The Writers' Institute is an annual two-day summer conference for fiction and nonfiction writers, held at the Memorial Union on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus. Fiction and nonfiction writers gather each year at this conference to get inspired and learn the latest techniques for writing and marketing. The conference also features book sales, a writing contest and take-home materials.

The 2007 conference will feature Keynote address speaker Pulitzer Prize-winning author David Maraniss as well as numerous literary agents. On the Wednesday prior to the conference, there will be an early bird workshop from 7:00-8:30 pm, titled "How to pitch to an agent,” with Joelle Delbourgo.
