Fellowship of Southern Writers




The Fellowship of Southern Writers is a literary organization founded in 1987 in Chattanooga, Tennessee by 21 Southern writers and other literary luminaries. The group meets in every odd-numbered year, usually during the Chattanooga Arts & Education Council Conference on Southern Literature.


In 2007, the fellowship formalized its own structure, electing its first board of directors and hiring its first executive director, Susan Robinson.[1]
