Writing is my path of resistance.

Fiction Poetry Nonfiction

George Capaccio, a native New Englander, now lives in North Carolina. He rose to prominence in his twenties with a series of dead-end jobs while writing on the side — poems, mostly. In his thirties, he added storytelling and acting to his résumé while still writing — poems, mostly. To date, he has written over 30 books of fiction and nonfiction for leading educational publishers. His book-length poetry collection—While the Light Still Trembles—took first prize in peace writing from the University of Arkansas. George has published individual poems in Rough Diamond, The Writing Disorder, The American Dissident, Left Curve, FutureCycle, and Books & Pieces, among other journals. Since October 7, 2023, Gaza has been the center of his writing and his life.
