In a world where voices are silenced and stories are erased, scrubbed, or thrown away, every word matters. The Decolonizing the Erotic Writing Workshop is a haven for those eager to express their truths and creativity. However, admission costs can be a major barrier. By supporting this scholarship donation drive, you are helping up to ten deserving women writers and artists enroll in a 10-month writing workshop with the rigor of an MFA, the safety of a curated space, and opportunity to become part of a dynamic writing family.
