AWP 2026: what’s in our bags?

Next week, March 4th-8th, we’ll be attending the annual AWP Conference & Bookfair in Baltimore, Maryland! We are so excited to reconnect with existing friends and colleagues, and to meet new people and make new connections. We’ll be attending panel discussions, cruising through the Bookfair, going to readings, and hanging out around the conference venue. If you see us, please say hello! If you want to meet up with us, leave a comment here and we’ll figure out how to make that happen.

We’re going to post highlights from each day of the conference, here on the blog: our favorite panels, coolest encounters, most insightful moments, and best book fair finds.

Check out some of the reading and note-taking tools we’ll be carrying with us - our AWP EDC (hint: the business cards indicate which stack is whose):
