Southampton Graduate Campus of Long Island University is pleased to announce The Southampton Graduate Campus Writers Conference, July 20 - 31, 2005. As part of the Southampton Graduate Campus Writing Program, the Conference provides a forum for authors of all genres to study and discuss writing. Through workshops, lectures, readings, and small-group discussions, the Conference offers inspiration and guidance to new writers, established writers, teachers of writing, editors, and qualified auditors. Located in a resort area of natural beauty, the Conference welcomes all who seek instruction that is friendly, rigorous, professionally useful, and intellectually challenging.

The primary work of the Conference is conducted in writing workshops in the novel, short story, poetry, play, literary essay, and memoir. This year's workshop faculty includes authors of the first rank who are also experienced, accessible teachers. Workshop size is limited, and sessions meet for two hours on alternate mornings throughout the Conference. Remaining mornings are devoted to lectures featuring faculty members and leading authors.
