In the seven years since its inception in 2013, The Hobart Festival of Women Writers http://www.hobartfestivalofwomenwriters.com&nbs... has presented sixty published women writers in fiction, non-fiction, poetry, drama, essay, and social media/blogging. Each year, twenty writers - some new to our festival and some who've come before – offer 2-hour writing craft workshops and present readings of their work. We've also offered Intensive Workshops, dramatic readings, and panel discussions that are open to the public.
Tucked into the beautiful Catskill Mountains, Hobart, New York is a peaceful, contemplative town that is home to six, independent book stores. Named as The Reading Capital of New York State, Hobart is the ideal locale for a festival to celebrate the work of women writers. http://www.hobartbookvillage.com
