REASON NO. 8 TO APPLY

to the Anne LaBastille Memorial Writers Residency: “My time at Twitchell is unforgettable, and the people I lived with for those two weeks have become friends. Apart from it being an incredible get-away, I accomplished a ton. The book I went there to re-conceptualize, rearrange, and rework was picked up by a dream press, and the individual stories I revised there have appeared in excellent journals. One even won a contest. I can’t express how valuable those two weeks were. They made me a better writer and a better literary community member.” – Tyler, 2018 Alumnus 🖌
