Astoria Writer’s Guild
Writer-in-Residence
Sarah has been selected as this year’s Writer-in-Residence (2020-2021) for the second annual USA North Coast Writer’s Residency.
Developed collaboratively by the Astoria Writer’s Guild and Astoria Visual Arts, the residency program offers writers a unique opportunity to launch new endeavors, revise works in progress, or conclude longstanding projects.
The program seeks to provide writers with writing time and space in an idyllic setting: the Spotted Goat Cottage on the Long Beach Peninsula, USA which features panoramic views of Willapa Bay, Long Island, and the Willapa Hills.
