📖 Feeling a little on the fringe? You’re in good company! ✨

We’re thrilled to unveil On The Fringe: A Collection of Community—the second annual anthology by Write Club and our wonderful members!

🤝 From family ties, romance, and tangled friendships to traditions flipped on their heads, and visions where fate blurs with imagination—this collection dives into what it means to live on the edge of connection, change, and meaning—embracing both the beautiful and the messy.

🖋️ Featuring stories, poems and much more from over 20 voices, this isn’t just a book—it’s a front-row seat into the wonderfully chaotic minds of writers navigating life’s fringes.

🎉 Grab your copy now at https://a.co/d/5eL46q0 and stay tuned—a launch party is coming, and you won’t want to be left on the fringe of that invite list!

Happy Friday Writers ✨✍

Here's some wonderful facts to welcome the weekend!

✒️ The word calligraphy means "beautiful writing" in Greek. This means that your handwriting, whether it's neat and tidy or wild and free, is already beautiful.
