Issue 8: Fall 2020
by Charles Templeton
In this edition of eMerge, our writers have provided us with some thought-provoking and insightful prose and poetry. We do hope you will enjoy our newly christened ‘Fall Edition’ as we forge ahead. We have included stories and poetry that will make you laugh and cry, and that will ask you to think deeply about humankind’s condition. We hope you will take a minute or two to appreciate the humanity that our authors have courageously shared with you.
If you get the opportunity, listen to one of our podcasts at Write Now at the Writers’ Colony’s podcasts. Chad Gurley, our Colony Coordinator, conducts the most informative podcast interviews with a variety of writers who stayed at the Colony. If you aspire to write, these are worth a listen!
In an effort to promote and assist our writers with marketing their work, we have formed a WCDH group on Goodreads. You can request to join by going to our WCDH Goodreads Group. We encourage our group to write positive reviews, provide ratings for members, and share with your Goodreads friends.
Until Next Time,
I Remain,
