Editing Bread Loaf Writers' Conference (section)

==Workshop==
Every other day for 10 days, the 220 participants attend 10-person workshops, where their writing is assessed by the faculty and others in the workshop, including Scholars and Fellows. Numerous readings, craft classes, events, and agent meetings are also included. [[Michael Collier (poet)|Michael Collier]], a poet and professor at the [[University of Maryland, College Park]] and director of the conference, told ''[[Seven Days (newspaper)|Seven Days]]'' newspaper of Vermont the event should not be confused with the more leisurely model of a writers' retreat. It's "designed for learning rather than for on-site writing." ''[[USA Today]]'' in an article on summer literary gatherings, said of Bread Loaf, "There is nowhere in America where you can hear more great writers reading more great work in such a short space of time." ''[[Seven Days (newspaper)|Seven Days]]'' notes that participants are warned to pace themselves to avoid exhaustion.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.usatoday.com/travel/destinations/10great/2005-06-23-literary-festivals_x.htm|title=10 great places to get write with the word - USATODAY.com|date=2005-06-24|website=www.usatoday.com}}</ref>
