2017 SWFWW Festival Schedule and Presenter Bios
The Festival Schedule is now available on our website, www.swwordfiesta.org Join us for three days of hanging out with and listening to over thirty authors who live and work in the Southwest. With "Word Travels fast" as our theme for 2017, the Festival introduces us to new authors and new ways of writing as well as to many of our favorite writers and genres. There's "something for everyone" -- sessions discussing fiction, non-fiction, poetry, music, publishing, and theater that will address both traditional print formats and newer platforms for writing such as E-books, graphic novels, comics, print, self-publishing, and slam poetry. So many ways we now communicate our prose and poetry. A fast moving fall weekend in beautiful, historic Silver City!
You will also find the bios of each presenter on the website. Visit us and see what a dyamic weekend awaits you Friday - Sunday, September 29-October 1.
