“Over the years, I’ve participated in more conferences than I can count, but time after time, Midwest Writers Workshop ranks among the best of the best. The students are anxious to learn, the faculty comes to teach, and the result is electrifying.“

This past July Midwest Writers Workshop celebrated its 50th anniversary! Take a look through our photo vault of vintage MWW and get a sense of how this organization has gathered and guided writers through the decades.
We also gave a huge sendoff to its director of 25 of those years–Jama Kehoe Bigger. Jama has served MWW in multiple capacities for nearly forty years and has made a dramatic impact on the Midwest writing community. Enjoy this video of thank yous from (just a few of the MANY) writers she’s helped. Send your own video or note to midwestwriters@yahoo.com
