What We Do
Our goals are to create programs that focus on developing social and political awareness in craft, to narrow the gaps between aspiring authors and the publishing industry by providing current information and strategies for navigating the industry, and to ensure there are opportunities for underrepresented writers.
Writing Cross-Culturally Retreat, 2018
Write with your eyes like painters,
with your ears like musicians, with your feet like dancers. You are the truthsayer with quill and torch.
Write with your tongues on fire.
— Gloria Anzaldúa
