virtual KWH? yup

Our faculty director and a few KWH pals have gone into Second Life to check out a virtual Writers House. Click here and find out a little more about this project. We think we'll be offering a poetry seminar in our virtual KWH sometime in October. Stay tuned. Meantime, if you are interested, write Al at afilreis AT writing DOT upenn DOT edu.

incoming students

New to Penn? Do you want to get involved in this student-centered, participant-driven project? You can join the Planning Committee, attend a reading, write for a KWH-affiliated lit mag, or join our staff (for work-study eligible undergraduates). Contact us at wh@writing.upenn.edu -- we'd be thrilled to tell you how you can get involved in these and other ways and to give you the lowdown on writing at Penn. Don't be shy! We want to hear from you.

summer staffers

We use our summers at the KWH to prepare for the upcoming year. If you stop by you'll find us researching visiting authors, scouring literary magazines, organizing closets, cleaning databases, and planning events for the fall (including a fakers and hoaxes night and a medieval feast). To get this all done, we have a fantastic team of staffers and interns, including: Max McKenna ('10), Kristen Martin ('11), Lee Huttner ('10), Pamela Takefman ('09), and Chris Milione (C'10). Stop by and say hello!
