Columbus State University's Carson McCullers Center for Writers and Musicians has an official website at

http://www.mccullerscenter.org

where you'll find the mission statement, fellowship application materials, detailed information about McCullers' life and work, and information about how you can donate to the McCullers Center. This blog, though, is intended to give you a more casual report of day-to-day goings-on at CSU's Carson McCullers Center.
