5 Quotes by Roy Burkhead

To become the best possible writer, one must keep learning and building up networks, which is why the publication and the mentors are so important. Our mentors and alumni especially provide a really good literary network that most writers cannot obtain.

The price is in fact, very reasonable in exchange for valuable direct interaction with professional mentors. The opportunities are endless with possible publications, available venues for works and of course networking.

Theoretically, our writers will come to us with nothing. And they will leave with the first draft of a novel, a portfolio of poems or even the first act of a play. The biggest monster of writing is the first blank 250 pages and the program is here to help confront those challenges.

At some point in your life, you become more interested in quality than quantity. By participating in this program you start to feel like a part of your community through your work.

The idea is that we feel like a community. We do not graduate many students at a time because some of our members might take a session off, but they still come to our free lectures or events that promote any other member's works. No one ever stops being a part of our community. We are all very centered around the philosophy of being a writer support group.
