Neil Gaiman Joins 2008 Clarion Faculty

Posted on September 11, 2007

Neil Gaiman has agreed to teach at the 2008 Clarion Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers' Workshop.

Fantasy writer Neil Gaiman joins a faculty that includes Kelly Link, James Patrick Kelly and Mary Anne Mohanra for the 2008 Clarion Writers Workshop, the Clarion Foundation announced.
Now in its second year at the University of California, San Diego, the workshop, one of the most highly regarded writing programs in the country, runs for six weeks, from July 29 to Aug. 9. Nalo Hopkinson and Geoff Ryman will team-teach the workshop's final two weeks.
Participants are selected from a pool of applicants who demonstrate the potential for successful writing careers. The Clarion Foundation will begin accepting applications on Jan. 2, 2008.

We're surprised Neil was able to find the time to do this, but it's an exciting opportunity for those who are accepted into the program. Get more information here.
