Literary Connection returns Oct. 2-3


The Laramie County Community College Foundation announces this:

We are excited to announce that the Literary Connection will return Oct. 2-3.

Our three guest authors for this year are Pam Houston, author of the best seller “Cowboys Are My Weakness”; Colorado native and “Sky Bridge” author Laura Pritchett; and fiction writer and essayist Bill Roorbach from Massachusetts. This year, we are introducing our morning workshop session on Friday with our three guest authors. They will each talk about the skills of writing, the process of literary development and more. On Saturday, we will reintroduce our authors as they present a guest lecture, again taking time to answer your questions and sign copies of their books.

Please visit our guest authors’ websites for more information:

Editor’s Note: Wyomingarts is happy to see the return of Laura Pritchett to Wyoming after a brief hiatus. She was in Casper last October to read with the three WAC creative writing fellowship recipients she selected during the competition. She also conducted a writing workshop — a great teacher. Bill Roorabach has been a presenter at the Casper College Literary Conference and also served as a judge for the WAC Blanchan/Doubleday writing awards. Pam Houston has never been a judge for the fellowships — an oversight on our part. But she has been to the Cowboy State to teach workshops, read her work around the campfire, and conduct research for “Cowboys are My Weakness.”
