If you follow any writers on Twitter, you've overheard the buzz about the 2023 AWP Conference & Bookfair for months. Touching down in Seattle this year, AWP is the ultimate who's-who of the literary world—writers, teachers, students, editors, and publishers of contemporary creative writing converge to "network" and line their coveted Joan Didion Literary Hub totes with small press goodies. The exhibition hall will be stacked with bookfair exhibitors, there will be panels with titles like "The Digital Sala: Radical Diasporic Filipinx Poetics" and "Migrations and Mutations: Writing and Translating From Our Bodies," and Min Jin Lee, author of Korean historical epic Pachinko, will give a keynote address. If you're anything like us, the whole shebang is anxiety-inducing and incredibly appealing. Enjoy!
