[margins.] community events
We've transformed our conference into a virtual space. And now there's no reason to gather only in August. As we make our way through these times together, it is still a year for our stories. Join us for chats and events with editors, agents, authors, and more!

Writing in Color Mixer
Third Fridays, 5:30p-7:30p
We join our friends Lighthouse Writers on the third Friday of each month for a happy hour and mixer for writers of color. Come by to meet fellow writers, and stay for a rotating run of panel talks, workshopping sessions, and open mics.
