Montreat Creative Writing Festival

We're excited about Creative Writing here at Montreat. The Festival was a great success the last two years, and we've planned another day of workshops and featured speakers all geared to get you excited about writing. Take a workshop in your favorite genre, or try out a new genre. Meet and ask questions of published authors. Get inspired by our beautiful campus. Attend an editing session with a writing expert. This day is all about YOU!
