The Longleaf Writers Conference includes a full week of intensive and generative writing workshops, daily seminars, agent consultations, school outreach programs, and special social events. The conference, which takes place in Seaside, provides an opportunity for all levels of writers to celebrate writing, network, and hone their craft in a beautiful setting among generous and celebrated writers and poets.
Past writers and academic attendees have used our educational and publishing opportunities to justify and apply for professional development/travel funds from their schools and universities. Past attendees have been signed by agents at LWC and we are proud to have seen books, articles, essays, and other creative writing published widely by these friends in the past years.
And, of course, let’s not forget the world-class beach; if you like white sand and clear water, this is the conference for you. We have chairs and umbrellas on the beach for your use, and we encourage plenty of creative loafing. This is a casual, laid-back conference, flip-flops and salty hair, naps on the sand, leisure snacks at local shops and cafes, perusing this quaint cottage town before cocktails for glorious nightly sunsets.
