Welcome!

Greetings, dear readers.

Beginning around the middle of December, selections from the Catalog for Potlatch 22's Clarion West Scholarship Auction will be displayed here.

The auction is an annual event, which has been held at Potlatch for the past 21 years. It benefits the nonprofit Clarion West Writers Workshop by augmenting their annual scholarship fund, which helps talented young writers receive top-notch training. And of course, this is good for you, because they're the folks who will be writing the speculative fiction stories that you want to read!

Check back frequently for new posts and feel free to use the comments option to request additional details, or contact the auction coordinator, Huw Evans, at auction@potlatch-sf.org.
