A project of SF Creative Writing Institute

This project is believed to be defunct. (January 2025)

About

The blog was created by San Francisco-based fiction writer and poet, Alexandra Kostoulas, founder and executive director of SF Creative Writing Institute. The spirit of the blog is to keep going as artists in difficult times such as these by writing and throwing work on the page. She invites her friends, colleagues, students and anyone else who wants to, to submit work. The art will be whatever we make in this strange time together. We welcome submissions of all kind from writers from all walks of life, ages, and levels of experience.
