Kelli Ford has lived in Austin, New Orleans, and Washington, D.C., but now finds herself in Boise, Idaho, teaching at a community college. She completed an M.F.A. at George Mason University, where she won the Dan Rudy Fiction Prize, George Mason’s Mary Roberts Rinehart Award for nonfiction, and was nominated for inclusion in the Best New American Voices series. Her final year at Mason, MFA faculty selected her to receive the Narrative Thesis Fellowship. In 2006 and 2007, she served as the fiction editor at Phoebe: A Journal of Literature and Art.
In its third year, The March Micro Marathon will be, as usual, a prompt-a-day whirlwind for 24 days. You’ll exchange drafts of micro fiction, non-fiction, and prose poetry in small groups and gather for a series of online events (all recorded for participants unable to attend live). We’ll finish with 3 competitions, and participants who are not already in SmokeLong Fitness will be invited to workshop with SmokeLong Fitness until the end of April!
