Southern Literary FestivalApril 22-24, 2010Mississippi University for Women is proud to be the host of this year's festival. We are excited to bring students and faculty from around the South to our historic campus, and we hope to offer a very student-centered festival with ample opportunities for students to socialize and to workshop their stories, poems, essays, and plays. We are also planning longer readings by the Contest prize winners in each category. Check back here for more details as our plans develop!
