Writing Workshop in Italy

The Leopardi Writing Conference is now accepting applications! As writing tends to be a solitary endeavor, our workshop will serve the inspiring purpose of community and place.

We invite you to the beautiful countryside of Le Marche, Italy, on the Adriatic Coast, to take advantage of this opportunity to receive expert feedback on your writing project, and get to know your fellow writers, including the distinguished members of our 2019 faculty:

Lou Berney - Christine O'Brien - Alex Dimitrov - Frederick Turner - Annemarie Estor - Patricia Hampl - Lynn Freed

As an exploration of ideas, techniques, and forms of writing, with primary emphasis on the careful analysis and discussion of each writer's work-in-progress, our workshops are intended to give writers the chance to grapple with questions of voice, point of view, structure, rhythm, and imagery, as well as with any and all issues of art and craft that arise from the individual manuscripts. Participants are expected to engage critically as much with the work of other writers as with their own.
