Mississippi Today reports on our "Decade of Daring" tenth anniversary workshop
We had an incredible week celebrating a “Decade of Daring” at the tenth anniversary workshop of the McMullan Writers Workshops June 9-13 — but don’t take our word for it, read all about it in Mississippi Today’s coverage here!

From our faculty to our resident assistants, from our keynote speakers to all of the featured writers who have joined us over the years: Thank you, thank you, thank you. We’re so grateful to our partners at the Eudora Welty Foundation and Millsaps College, and inspired every day by the vision of our workshop founder Margaret McMullan.
Our “Decade of Daring” isn’t over yet; stay tuned throughout the rest of 2025 for profiles of our workshop alumni and all the incredible things they are doing now. For example, to tease one upcoming story, that Mississippi Today article was written by an alum of our very first workshop in 2015!
