This reading and discussion with Octavia E. Butler @ClarionUCSD and @ClarionWest Scholars went even deeper than we imagined it would. You can watch the event in its entirety plus our #CelebratingOctavia panel on the CBS website: carlbrandon.org/2020/06/cele…

We're just two days from the end of this summer's 'Thon, and thus far we've raised a little over 5K! Not bad, but we can push through and raise a little more... How are our writers doing out there? Are you going to hit your word count? There's still time! clarionwriteathon.com/

It’s hard to believe we’re about to enter the last week of the Clarion 2024 workshop AND our Write-a-Thon! Thanks to our participants for raising just over $4500 so far. Let’s see if we can’t push to close the summer on an even stronger note! clarionwriteathon.com

Hello, fellow Write-a-Thoners! As a special prize for the person who raises the most funds in Week 5 of the 'Thon, Clarion alum and notable author Geoffrey Landis has offered to donate a t-shirt that is much too big for him. (Yes, you read that right!)

The shirt comes from the original Clarion University (Clarion, PA) where the workshop got its start in 1968. And don't worry, Geoffrey promises it's never been worn! clarionwriteathon.com/

@ClarionUCSD week 3 was a success! @mdbell79, thank you for an amazing week of workshops and writing quests. You have transformed my understanding of story structure and sentence-level acoustics. It's been both an honor and a delight to learn from you!
