The participants were selected from a competitive pool of submissions by the staff of Flyway, a journal of writing and environment, in which the readers' work will also be published. Part of the Symposium on Wildness, Wilderness & the Creative Imagination.
The Symposium on Wildness, Wilderness, and the Creative Imagination is an environmental literary festival featuring readings, poetry performances, panel discussions, documentary films and book signings.
