Keynote Speaker
Anthony Wood grew up in historic Natchez, Mississippi, fueling a life-long love of history. He lived and worked in Alaska for several years, but returned to the South to minister three decades among the poor, homeless, and incarcerated, inspiring him to co-author Up Close and Personal: Embracing the Poor, numerous ministry articles, and two short books, Your Seeking Soul Set Free, and Spirituality 101. He preaches once a month for a small church in Mt. Ida, Arkansas.
Anthony’s writing has won a number of awards, including a Will Rogers Copper Medallion Award for his short story, “Not So Long in the Tooth,” published in Saddlebag Dispatches in 2021. A number of his works have been published in Saddlebag Dispatches, The Vault of Terror, The Avocet: A Journal of Nature Poetry, Writer’s Monthly, and several anthologies.
Anthony became a member of Arkansas Writers’ Hall of Fame in 2024.
