Thanks to 17 talented writers and 80 generous donors for making The Great Write Off of 2012 a great success an a sweet memory. Together we raised more than $5,500 to help IO expand ongoing afterschool workshops in critically underserved community locations. Thanks for sharing our belief that poetry adds power and magic to young people’s lives.

Congratulations also to Fiction Writers Review, which sponsored the GWO, and to the five other Michigan literary organizations who made the GWO a friendly but spirited competition. May we all continue to help literary arts thrive in Michigan. We also hope you’ll join us in paying special thanks to Springfed Arts of Michigan, a not-for-profit arts and education organization devoted to teaching the craft of writing. How great it was to have so many of their writers stand in support of IO. (For more information visit www.springfed.org)
