Please upload a short writing sample into the following box. You can manipulate your formatting as you wish. This writing sample will only be used to match you with the workshop that will engage you the most. This sample is not the manuscript you will workshop in the conference (or at least it doesn’t have to be). Your workshop leader will be in touch with you to collect that manuscript in early May.
