We are proud to give writers the space and guidance needed to communicate their stories. This can be a long process whether someone is working on a memoir, collection of essays or poetry, a novel, or even a play. By giving access to affordable creative writing education, we hope to help more people perfect their craft and put their written words out into the world.
