I wrote about the International Writing Program at the University of Iowa, which was a crucial part of my literary education. It’s now fighting for its future after losing its funding last week. Free post; no paywall. Link in profile.

Please support the @UIIWP if you can; US gov funding has been withdrawn. I would not have been able to participate without it; I'm saddened to think about the other writers who might never get that chance now. Read more here: bit.ly/support-iwp

Last week, the State Department cut funding for the International Writing Program, which brings writers from around the world to Iowa City. I wrote about why the IWP is precious, & how crucial it was for my education as a writer. Free post; no paywall. Link in profile.

The staff of the International Writing Program mourn Shelly, whose years of service on behalf of writers and readers around the world as Fall Residency coordinator (2020–2025) were deeply impactful on the program’s participants and their extended communities.

It is with profound sadness that we share the news of Shelly J. Criswell’s passing. Shelly was in her home, surrounded by her family, when she died on Saturday, March 8, after a prolonged battle with cancer.

Despite this disappointing turn of events, the IWP’s mission to promote mutual understanding through creative writing and literature remains unchanged; with the help of a limited number of partners, we will still hold a 2025 Fall Residency while pursuing new sources of funding.
