Donny Bailey Seagraves was recently honored by being selected for the inclusion in the Georgia Writers Registry. The GWR is a program of the Georgia Council for the Arts, a state agency that, for more than three decades, has fulfilled its mission “to provide access to the arts for all Georgians. The registry includes poets, playrights, and writers of creative nonfiction and fiction. The purpose of the GRA is to provide Georgia Readers, teachers, librarians, students, citizens, corporate and public entities, community organizations, nonprofits, and others with an adjudicated listing of profes
sional writers who are available for commissions, readings and consideration in other projects. As an approved member of the registry, government and non-profit organizations may apply for funding in support of an author’s participation in literary events under the Literary Events Grants of Georgia program. The Georgia Writers Registry is administered through the Center for Southern Literature at the Margaret Mitchell House in Atlanta. More information and a temporary listing of the registry are available on their website at www.gwtw.org. The Margaret Mitchell House and Literary Center, located on Peachtree Street in downtown Atlanta, are frequent sponsors of a wide array of literary and art-related events.
