We were all smiles on our 2nd annual Women’s Writer’s Conference. Last year, there were 8 of us. This year there were 11. We gathered in a cozy home in the Catskills. We set goals for ourselves, we embraced nature, and we gave ourselves permission to do what we needed to move forward in our writing. Some of worked on our novels, others on their poetry collections or non-fiction projects. This year our biggest lesson was to give ourselves grace. To not let writing become a chore, but to remember why we do it in the first place.

Interested in attending our next conference? Applications will open in January 2027!

On August 28th, we released our 12th issue titled “Pulse” and ran a literary gallery in its honor. The gallery was everything we wanted it to be and more. With electric art pieces, vulnerable spoken performances, and the multiple mediums used in the gallery, we were able to create a space that had something for everyone.

We’re grateful for all the artist who allowed us to display their art. To all the writers who trusted us with their works. To all the guest who came and supported.

We can’t wait to see you at the next one. 🤎

Our differences make us strong. They make us one of a kind.🤎
