I've had a great weekend! I'm extremely thankful for @southernlitarts and their support to Memphis arts and Memphis artists! Also @artistiklounge 6th anniversary was beautiful! :)

@annkpowers I read this "a lit festival" as in "it was lit, fam."
I know it looks like I’m sleeping but I’m honestly contemplating my answer and/or Andrea’s response. I enjoyed this so much. Love and light surrounded us for the hour. #solitMemphis x.com/drsmadden/stat…
Empathy in journalism is the theme of this panel (note the representation of women and women of color). I think this is also the key to all communication, research, and teaching. Detachment does not equal objectivity or professionalism in a field. #MLAF18 #SoLitMemphis

Our #MLAF short story writing panel was so lit! Professor Danielle Littlefield moderated. My co-panelists were brilliant writers @ReeAmilcarScott and @chanellebenz

Last thought on writing short stories for now: Writing a story should feel good. There's even pleasure in writing painful stories. Everyone loves sad love songs, right? If you don't like what you're writing, change it. #MLAF
@KieseLaymon @adiavictoria @annkpowers @KingofMarco @mychalsmith @southernlitarts Thanks so much! So great to see you and hear your brilliance on display. Can't wait to do it again soon.
Dreams come true, we're living proof! Just wait on it! x.com/ktewing901/sta…

My loot of signed books from #MLAF18. Technically I bought Shadowshaper for a friend & it is inscribed for her, so I should read that one first so I can send it to her soon... Anyway, thanks to everyone @southernlitarts for a wonderful inaugural #MLAF
It’s a wrap. Thank you @southernlitarts for inviting me to #MLAF18. The festival was amazing. The care put into the details was apparent. Thank you. 💕
Don't underestimate the importance of exposure. A short story writer needs to meet challenging people and engage with difficult ideas. This is story fuel. #MLAF
