Mission Statement
We believe in writing to empower, and we believe that our voices can stir movements of art and progression. We’re particularly interested in aspiring writers and look forward to bringing voices of various backgrounds and experiences together; to give a voice to, and celebrate those who are often overlooked.
We strive to:
- Allow writers to submit work that excites them and makes them proud
- Encourage people with voices that have not yet been heard, i.e. new authors who have never been published
- Fight to eradicate prejudice in the literary community
- Bring confidence to the writing world
- Showcase writing that rises
