We had an incredible couple of days together in Northwest Iowa learning, listening and moving forward as storytellers, journalists, musicians and creators. Thank you Buena Vista University, Cobblestone Ballroom, and Byron's for the fantastic hospitality. And, THANK YOU to all of our amazing supporters than joined us during this year’s Spring Retreat to Storm Lake. Your support of our writers and their professional services is what powers the IWC. If you’re not currently following the bi-weekly round-up of articles, you are most certainly missing out on important news and meaningful stories courtesy of our award-winning and passionate writers that call Iowa home all around this great state.

The Lobe Rangers (you’ll learn more about these farmers soon) spoke to members of the Iowa Writers' Collaborative in Storm Lake yesterday. Thanks Darcy Dougherty Maulsby for introducing us.
