Southeastern Literary Magazine and Small Press Festival

I am excited today. God is too good to me. I was a littl bummed that I won't be attending the ACFW Conference in Tennessee in September. Well, my alma mater, Agnes Scott College, along with the Chattahoochee Review-one of my fav. lit. reviews and my only short story contest rejection for 2004(imagine the pain)--are hosting a literary magazine conference for Free!!! Free. And Lord, have mercy. This conference is what I needed. See. I have this little reader series. And I was taking a hiatus in September and hosting a bowling party(thanks Jillian's for donating the food, the bowling lanes, and shoe rentals,) to decide my next step with thirdthursdays. Should I move it to Friday for the winter, create an audio lit journal(an example), pod cast, compilation CD like my friends at IBC Designs-Thanks for the free cds for thirdthursdays(an example), make a little pocket change or what? And this conference will help me answer some of those questions.

Here are the details:
