Taking Root

The Girls Write Now 2022 Anthology

By: Girls Write Now

This anthology is a catalog of seeds—the work of a network of young writers and mentors, each cultivating a shimmering, emergent voice. For the past two years, New York City high school students have weathered an adolescence shaped by an ongoing global pandemic. Throughout it all, they have found new ways to build community and take root. Roots allow for living beings to journey into our past and forward into the future, toward and away from home, and enable us to withstand the storms that invariably pass through. In short stories, personal essays, poetry, and more, the students reflect on endurance, change, and growth. For twenty-five years, Girls Write Now has been amplifying transformative stories that break down the barriers of gender, race, age and poverty. In addition to being the first writing and mentoring organization of its kind, Girls Write Now continually ranks among the top programs nationwide for driving social-emotional growth for youth. The nationally award-winning nonprofit mentors the next generation of female and gender expansive writers and leaders who are shaping culture, impacting businesses and creating change.

Taking Our Place in History

The Girls Write Now 2020 Anthology

By: Girls Write Now

The award-winning annual anthology from New York City’s first and only writing and mentoring organization for girls and gender-expansive teens. What is it like growing up in New York City as a teen in 2020? This book invites you into their homes and families, their schools and neighborhoods, their hearts, hopes, and fears. Enter a world where clay creatures take on aluminum oppressors. Get thrown against an elevator wall in the midst of a horror story. Go backstage with a rock band, say goodbye to relatives as you start a new life, stand with an engineer solving a coding problem. Experience tragedy in a mosque, feel the wounds of slavery, know the terror of glass shattering in a World War II village, and see how this next generation of leaders looks to the past and writes a better future for us all. For more than two decades, the nationally award-winning nonprofit Girls Write Now has broken down the barriers of gender, race, age, and poverty, elevating the voices of writers who are too often not heard—or worse, silenced. With mentors by their sides, the girls and gender-nonconforming youth tackle climate change, racism, sexism, rejection, immigration, and friendship—and take their place in history. This book is their testament. “The written word has often been the only outlet for women and girls to express their authentic stories and unique voices in so many societies across the globe. Girls Write Now harnesses that power, nurtures it, and amplifies it so that these singular voices can become generations.” —Robin Thede, creator, writer, executive producer and star of A Black Lady Sketch Show

Generation F

The Girls Write Now 2018 Anthology

By: Girls Write Now

Writing is a powerful act that lets the writer articulate her thoughts and feelings directly, fluently, openly, and originally; and in doing so, the writer forges a connection with that other important half of the equation: the reader. These young writers are working hard every day to describe their inner lives and take them outward; to forge that essential, beautiful connection." -MEG WOLITZER, author of The Female Persuasion "These young girls are the real visionaries of tomorrow and we are beyond lucky to read their stories today." -JENNY ZHANG, author of Sour Heart Fabulous. Ferocious. Fragile. Fresh. Female. This is Generation F: The Girls Write Now 2018 Anthology, featuring a foreword by Ashley C. Ford and an introduction by Teen Vogue's Executive Editor Samhita Mukhopadhyay and set for release on May 22nd, 2018. We are fighters and feminists, freethinkers and forces to be reckoned with. We are fitting in (or not), fed up, fighting back, and figuring it out in classrooms, cafes, and all across New York City. Coinciding with Girls Write Now's landmark 20th Anniversary, Generation F explores what it means to be part of a generation yet to be defined, facing unprecedented challenges, freedoms, technologies, and choices. The mentors and mentees in this unique volume are redefining feminist identities, finding their voices, fighting for essential rights, and facing our community with fresh eyes. The Girls Write Now anthology series has been recognized as the Outstanding Book of the Year in the Independent Publisher Book Awards, and has earned additional honors from the International Book Awards, National Indie Excellence Awards, Next Generation Indie Book Awards, the New York Book Festival, the San Francisco Book Festival, and the Paris Book Festival.

Girls Write Now on the Other Side of Everything

The 2023 Anthology

By: Girls Write Now

In partnership with Dutton Books, Amazon Literary Partnership, and Feminist Press, Girls Write Now On the Other Side of Everything: 2023 Anthology is a multi-genre showcase of the best writing from today’s next-gen voices and leaders. Do you know what it’s like to communicate with your family across a salty ocean’s divide? Do you want the sun and moon to enter your home with stories written in embers? Do you seek voices that will shatter expectations? Welcome to the other side of everything. It’s the other side of silence, the other side of childhood, the other side of hate, the other side of indifference, it’s the other side of sides, where the binary breaks down. It’s a new paradigm, a destination, a different perspective, a mindset, a state of openness, the space between the endless folds in your forehead, hopes for tomorrow, and reflections on the past. This anthology of diverse voices is an everything bagel of literary genres and love songs, secrets whispered in the dark of night, conversations held with ancestors under the sea.

Characters, Colors - N - Cash

By: Thinkpen Write

An explosive and awakening novel of characters galore, both real and imaginative. Troupers who weave in and out of this hard fiction as if each one is playing musical chairs. In these players's minds, the winning seat has been pre-arranged wtih his or her name, and the song halted suddenly only to announce this. Characters Colors 'N' Cash is like a clown spinning out of control on life's merry-g-round, faster than sound- like sour grapes on life's clocked interim. This human-clown is Hawk, Earthman, and Casey, who are really the same person, depending on which one of his friends (over many years) may be addressing him at the moment. But the conscious, which is Littleman in the boat, is alive in all three people, and my force the reader to wonder how far the director might go, if this conscious did not exist. When friends who greet this man with different nicknames, past and present, come together to face a common enemy, they all must test their own consciousness, as well as their grit, with a razors edge line, which separates only their reason for living, from their attempt to avoid sudden death.

Girls Write Now Unmuted

The Girls Write Now 2021 Anthology

By: Girls Write Now

Censored. Repressed. Subdued. Bound. Muted. No more. In a world pushed to the precipice of change, in a society that values the tried and true over the dynamic and new, what does it mean to be unmuted? In this anthology, a chorus of young women and gender-expansive teens give voice to fear and silence, hold nothing back, and demand justice. To be unmuted right now requires a new brand of bravery and these writers show us how it’s done. Using stories, poems, essays, fiction, drama, interviews, and more, they report on a global pandemic, a climate crisis, and the movement for racial equity. They also invite us on their personal journeys through the labyrinth of young adulthood: feeling the rich soil of a neighborhood garden between their fingers; traveling through time in search of their parents; inhaling the charged air where young love is brewing. For twenty-three years, the nationally award-winning nonprofit Girls Write Now has broken down the barriers of gender, race, age, and poverty, elevating the voices of writers who are too often not heard—or worse, silenced. Girls Write Now is the first writing and mentoring organization for girls and gender expansive youth of color, ranking today as one of the top programs nationwide for driving social-emotional growth for youth.
