2021 Writing from Inlandia

The Writing from Inlandia anthology series is published annually and represents a selection of work by anyone who has participated in an Inlandia Institute creative writing workshop during that calendar year. Inlandia's creative writing workshops program began with one workshop at the Riverside Public Library in 2009 and has expanded to workshops both in person and virtual, with participants from distant continents as well as from the Inlandia region. In addition to our usual slate of multi-genre workshops this year also included specialty workshops like Food Writing: Second Helpings, Adventures in Chronologyland, Butterflies Can Hollar, Poet-try, and more. The 2021 anthology features work by these sixty-one contributors representing a cross-section of participants this year: Janet Lako AlexanderDon BennettMary BriggsGeorgette Geppert BuckleyAlben J.
