Panels


Panels from the 2017 festival included: "Writing in and of The South," "Writing in the Age of Trump," "Intersextion: At the Crossroads of Gender and Sexuality," and "My First Time: Anxiety and Exhilaration."

Readings

 

By tradition, the festival begins at Buffalo Street Books with a series of micro readings. Readings over the next two days took place at Ithaca's Handwerker Gallery. These gave the authors a longer chance to show off their work.
