The Center for Fiction Writers Studio

“The Center for Fiction is the rarest thing these days: A place where it’s possible to concentrate and actually get some writing done. With so much disruption everywhere else, I’m really thankful for the staff’s hard work to keep the Writers Studio safe and calm and pleasant.” —Justin Scheck, Journalist
