This site will be maintained in order to bring news to his fans of any new works about him or even potentially by him that could interest you, his fans and readers. As many of you know, Pat Conroy had two works in progress when he died, and these works may be made available in months and years ahead as we find a way...

As we go through a large body of messages you, his readers, sent him, we may come to you for your permission to share some of the stories you sent to Pat Conroy...
