Chapter Success Stories & Testimonials

Hear from some of our amazing TYWI chapter members
“This is the first time a writing club has ever survived a full year at my school, and it looks like this one will be around for a long, long time.”
Chapter Member
“I did have a great time running my club. I think the idea of a major project is perfect for the club; it got me and my members engaged and also gave us something to work on… Allowing chapter presidents to have creativity and freedom regarding club meetings while also providing some structure is a great balance.”
Chapter Member
“I’m glad for the opportunities presented by this club… Making this club has provided a great community of writers, and it’s fun to plan and talk to others passionate about the same things as you.”

“Our major project was a writing and art installation that was viewable in the local community center in late April and early May. We also chose to dedicate a portion of the installation to our sponsor, who passed away in late March.”
