Announcing New Partnership
The Aya Collective and Strive Publishing are partnering together to collect manuscripts from Black women who are wanting to take their first step into writing. We seek to elevate the stories of Black women who have been sitting on short story ideas that they have not started to write, or who have a manuscript of poems that they have not yet published, or an essay that they are ready to share with the world. Does this sound like you? Fill out this short application below with your idea centered on the theme of Finding the Voice Within and submit it no later than January 1, 2023. Submit.
Additionally, you can find out more about the Aya Collective and Strive Publishing, our work, and more by joining us for the next Teaching Tuesday event on November 29th.
