A new Philly writing group welcoming writers in any genre, at any stage of their project or career. Registration required.
January’s Personal Velocity lineup features Emily Van Duyne, Gina Myers, and Rae Pagliarulo.
Organized by Katie Bennett, the series will feature personal stories (creative nonfiction/ memoir) by Philadelphia-based writers who are women, nonbinary, and trans. Personal Velocity will run every month from Aug '25 - Aug '26, thanks to a generous grant from Penn Treaty Special Services District.
Don your favorite fangs and vampire fashions and join us for a night of silly, sexy fun with Lindsay Merbaum, author of the queer horror-comedy Vampires at Sea. Lindsay will discuss her novella with local author Stephanie Feldman, lead a round of vampire-themed trivia, and share sex/relationship advice from Rebekah, an emotional vampiress and the narrator of Vampires at Sea.
Join Amy Beth Sisson, Emma Wu, Darla Himeles, and Moriel Rothman-Zecher at this reading to celebrate Amy Beth’s win: the 2025 J. Michael Samuel Prize for Emerging Writers Over 50 from Lambda Literary!
Our goal is to create innovative relationships between authors and the work they produce. We look for writing that shows a connection from the head to the hand and publish stories that have the power to change and entertain.
