Enhancing the quality of nonfiction writing, encouraging innovation, creating a community of writers - that's what the Mayborn Literary NonFiction Writers Conference of the Southwest is all about. Our mission, in short, is to transform craftsmen into artists. It's our believe that if we share the same creed, believe in the same cause and maintain an unflinching faith in the narrative craft, we can create a culture of storytelling in the Southwest that will endure and flourish.

– George Getschow, Mayborn mentor
