Writers Matter

Poets & Writers may be the nation's largest nonprofit literary organization. Most of you probably know it from the magazine of the same name, and its website. However, the group's purpose is to provide information, advice, and financial support to creative writers. According to
Poets & Writers, Inc. - Endowment Campaign-Writer Matter,

early in their careers, National Book Award winners Philip Levine and E.L. Doctorow; Pulitzer Prize winners Charles Simic, Alice Walker, and John Ashbery; and best-selling author Sue Monk Kidd benefitted from Poets & Writers' support.

P & W has undertaken a fundraising campaign to increase the numbers of writers it helps and the ways it does so. You can support the literary arts by participating.
