Celebrating the Written Word

Our Fall Session is On!

We are loving this fall season–and not just the beautiful leaves. Our classes are fantastic, with adults just dipping their toes into writing to writers with books already in the publication pipeline. Plus our fantastic, creative classes with kids and teens, in person in Summit and South Orange, NJ, and weekdays online.

The Writers Circle Journal – Issue 16: Blink, Blink, Blink

“We all understand the fear of the blank page and the power of the taskmaster cursor blinking with unwavering expectation. We long to obey. We truly want to place brilliant words on the page. But we also wonder, doubt ourselves, and stare, often dumbstruck in the face of the daunting invitation.”

Read the amazing work of this summer’s teen writers in our brand new issue. Poetry, prose, and insights into this very complex world.

Congratulations to all the young writers who were published this year, and to all the writers in our Summer Creative Writing Intensives. We hope all of them keep writing throughout the busy school year. And we cannot wait to see you back next summer!
