This is the schedule for Madville Publishing and its authors who will be attending AWP26 in Baltimore next week. It’s a writing conference larger than any you’ve probably ever seen (Unless you’ve been to one of the very biggies like London or Frankfurt.) It will be Madville’s eighth year there! (We can hardly take that in… time is flying.)
