For me, each Dramatists Guild Conference is the event of a lifetime. The fellowship you find there as well as the heightened discussions are meaningful for much longer than three days. This last conference in New York was no exception.

But please don’t take my word for it. Instead, I’d like you to hear the words of a brand new member who attended the conference for the very first time.

Let me introduce Holly Yurth Harmon. I met up with her after the conference to see what her impressions were.
