The Paris Review will attend the AWP Conference this year in Portland, Oregon. The AWP Conference and Bookfair is an essential annual destination for writers, teachers, students, editors, and publishers. Each year more than 12,000 attendees join our community for four days of insightful dialogue, networking, and unrivaled access to the organizations and opinion-makers that matter most in contemporary literature. The conference features over 2,000 presenters and 550 readings, panels, and craft lectures. The bookfair hosted over 800 presses, journals, and literary organizations from around the world. AWP’s is now the largest literary conference in North America.

 

We’ll be at Booth #5065 and our editor, Emily Nemens, will be participating in two panels:

 

Behind the Curtain: The Editors Speak, with Christian Kiefer, Oscar Villalon, Allison Wright, and Karissa Chen 

 

She/He Said: Resisting, Dealing With & Benefiting From Editors’ Suggestions, with David Kirby, Laura Brown, Jessica Faust, and Edward Falco

 

If you will be at AWP, please stop by and say hello!
