About this Event
If you're a writer navigating the often arduous experience of publishing, this event is for you. The DC Writers' Salon A&A Q&A (agent & author question & answer) series provides writers with opportunities to hear from experienced folks on different facets of the publishing world.
This summer, we're featuring Rhonda Zimlich, Director of the MFA in Creative Writing Program at American University.
Rhonda writes about intergenerational trauma and the unbreakable spirit of youth. Her debut poetry collection ONCE DORMANT VOLCANO, is forthcoming from Finishing Line Press. Her novel, RAISING PANIC, won the Steel Toe Books 2023 Book Award for Prose. Other works have appeared in Brevity, Past-Ten, American Writer’s Review, and others. She was awarded the 2020 Literary Award in Nonfiction from Dogwood, a Journal of Poetry and Prose at Fairfield University. The same essay earned her an honorable mention in Best American Essays. She received the 2021 Fiction Award from Please See Me, and the 2024 Nonfiction Award from Barely South Review.

Based in Dupont, the DC Writers' Salon is a studio and community for writers. The Salon helps us make space and time for what we love to do: write. But more than that, it invites us to engage with the otherwise solo, and sometimes grueling, process of writing in a way that's more connected and accountable. Learn more at DCWritersSalon.com.
