The cover for the first-ever issue of SWING from @PorchTN is absolutely stunning. Rachel Briggs (@wiresandfires ) is so talented. Look for my essay about #plinko and leaving the mormon church between its pages when it is published in October.

My @PorchTN students made me a card for our final autofiction workshop session last night. Made me misty-eyed.

[Donovan McAbee @donovanmcabee]

Y’all go hang out with @lou__turner at @PorchTN!

[Morgan @morganflorsheim]

Endlessly grateful to @hannasusj + @PorchTN for making space for this piece. I wrote and submitted it a while back, and my grandfather has since passed away. Feeling lucky to have gotten to learn about and love him through his writing <3 https://t.co/V3BBZxmqXL

Beautiful reflection on the art of translation. Study with @JenessaAbrams this summer!

[Jenessa Abrams @JenessaAbrams]

Because I'm an extremely chill person, when I was asked to write something fun to promote my upcoming translation class @PorchTN, I wrote about being hospitalized instead.

This is why I'm no good at parties.

[Kristen Field @kristen_field]

Just wanted to let y'all know that I'm leading a virtual playwriting workshop this summer thanks to @PorchTN! Just one night a week for a month, and it's perfect for anyone new to writing for the stage or experienced playwrights who want to get feedback on a new short play.

[The Porch @PorchTN]

Please join us again! We’ve got a ton of great summer classes, for starters.

I've been looking for some places to take writing classes and remembered I took a workshop wiht @KieseLaymon last year at @PorchTN with @amynagopaleen. I think this might be my instructional home for the next little bit.
