FEATURING AWARD-WINNING PUBLISHED AUTHORS

Kelly Easton

Peter Johnson

This year's Institute will feature the return of our outstanding faculty of Kelly Easton, Mark Peter Hughes, and Liza Ketchum. We are also pleased to announce that we have added Peter Johnson to our faculty beginning this summer to work with students who have more experience with writing. He will work with his mentor group when Mark, Liza and Kelly are working with their groups, so everyone will be able to hear our guest speakers. He will also be with us on Saturday to work with students on poetry. Peter has had a long and highly successful career as a poet that predates his wonderful work as a YA novelist.  We are so pleased that he will be joining us and that we will be able to offer an advanced program for our participants. Once again participants will have the opportunity to submit 10 pages of a manuscript to our editor-in-residence and have a one-on-one conference.

More good news is that we are able to lower participant costs significantly this year. Undergraduate tuition will be $630 for 3 credits, graduate tuition will be $800, and CEUs or noncredit will be $400. In other words, we are using the fee schedule of Continuing Education and giving participants an across the board 20% discount.
