Fundamental Elements
In the midst of all the craziness of these past two months, we have managed to get our 5th anthology of Teen Writers, The Fundamental Elements, edited and published and it looks great!
The foreword this year is written by Phil Metres who will also speak at our awesome Launch Party via Zoom on Thursday, June 25th 7:00PM. Stay tuned in to our website and social media for more information Next Monday!
We are thrilled that local poet and scholar, Philip Metres contributed to this year’s anthology by writing the foreword. Phil has written ten books, most recently, Shrapnel Maps (Copper Canyon 2020). Awarded the Guggenheim Fellowship, the Lannan Fellowship, three Arab American Book Awards, and two fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, he is professor of English and director of the Peace, Justice, and Human Rights program at John Carroll University. Phil will join the teen writers at the Book launch on June 25th!
