We’ll be posting more later, but just wanted to say that we’ll be coming back again on April 21, 2012. Same place — the Johns Hopkins Advanced Writing Program just off Dupont Circle in downtown Washington, DC.

Sam Lipsyte will be the keynote this year.

We’re currently finalizing the rest of the million details that have to be finalized, but April 21, 2012 is a go. Note that the details on this site still pertain to the 2011 conference. We’ll be updating everything in January 2012 and as we continue to finalize the schedule for the upcoming conference.

To stay up to date on conference news and details, you can always “like” Barrelhouse on facebook, or follow us on Twitter. We tend to leak cool news in those places first.
