The Missouri Review has some exciting news! Thanks to a generous grant from the University of Missouri Office of the Provost, we are embarking on a year-long project to create a digital archive of conversations with writers, editors, and marketers to contemplate the life cycle of literary works in the present publishing climate. This project includes three in-person author events here in Columbia. Our first conversation featured Rachel Yoder, a former TMR Editors’ Prize winner in fiction (36.1), and was an absolute success. We discussed her widely-acclaimed debut novel Nightbitch (Doubleday, 2021), and had a blast doing it, as you will one day not very long from now get to see (we are currently in the editing phase of making video features of the event).
For our next installment, we will be welcoming New York Times bestselling author Leslie Jamison for a conversation about her new memoir Splinters (Little, Brown, 2024).
For all of you in the mid-Missouri area, the second installment of the Miller Conversations on Literary Publishing, with Leslie Jamison in discussion with associate editor Kylan Rice, will be held at the The Memorial Union on the University of Missouri campus, Room N201 BC, October 9. The event begins at 6:30 p.m., with a reception to follow. Please visit our Eventbrite site for this event so we can be sure to estimate how many of you will be joining us. Click here to learn more.
This event is free and open to the public.
