Our Indiegogo Campaign to help us raise funds to publish Iowa [W]rites of Spring is now live! Featuring 16 creators, Iowa [W]rites of Spring explores our interpretations of spring through short stories, poetry, art, and photography!
The campaign will run from Monday, March 2nd-April 1st. Our goal is to raise $1,500 for publishing/printing/shipping costs, and to help us continue to run our organization. The campaign page will break everything down about where your money is going and how it's being used.
This is a great way for you to preorder your copy of our anthology. Tiers available for backing will also include previous anthologies, swag, and even a custom-made The Writers' Rooms dice kit to help you brainstorm your next story! If you're interested in backing us, the best time to do it is in the beginning because it will help give us more exposure.
Here's a blurb about the book:
Winter loosens its iron grip as spring unfurls. Creatures and roots awaken from hibernation. The rising sun promises life with the scent of churned soil and floral perfumes. From loss and grief comes a rebirth of both body and spirit. Even in the darkest moments, hope emerges.
This new anthology from The Writers’ Rooms community demonstrates our artists’ imaginations when faced with the renewal of Spring. In story, poetry, and art, IOWA [W]RITES of Spring presents an exploration of how new relationships can sprout through tragedy and how the changing seasons dance a tango between cold and warmth.
From humorous to hopeful, all the way to mournful and stark, IOWA [W]RITES of Spring takes you on a journey through the ingenious imaginations of our literary community. With their contributions, they give expression to our relationship to Spring in all its glorious variety and forms.
