TIFTON—The English and Communication Department at Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College will offer a virtual Young Writers Conference from 9 a.m. until noon on June 17.
Dr. Wendy Harrison, Department Chair for English and Communication at ABAC, said the conference is open to ninth grade students through just-graduated seniors. There is no charge for the conference, but participants must register at tinyurl.com/ABACYWC2023.
“The theme of this year’s conference is ‘Find Your Voice,’ and workshops this year will focus on developing a voice for academic, fiction, and podcast writing,” Harrison said. “Workshops will be led by ABAC faculty, who are themselves published writers and can offer both practical and technical advice to student writers.”
Full-time ABAC students and those students who will be full-time at ABAC in the fall term can qualify to receive scholarship support toward their ABAC tuition.
For more information about the conference, contact Harrison at wharrison@abac.edu or 229-391-4962.
