Writers In Progress Competitors

At Purdue University, we keep going. For over 150 years, generations of Boilermakers have left their mark in small steps and giant leaps. Today, we continue in those footsteps as we bring our best and learn to build a better world, together. Please visit our YouTube page to explore our accessible videos playlist.

GrubStreet is one of the nation's leading creative writing centers. We work to remove social, cultural, and institutional barriers in order to facilitate and support an expansive and equitable artistic ecosystem where all voices thrive and where storytelling flourishes. This mission is essential because our collective voices have the power to shape a more just and connected world by revealing truths, transforming lives, and deepening human understanding.

The Writer's Center supports writers and people who want to write. Founded in 1976, The Writer’s Center (TWC) strives to inspire an ever-widening local community to explore the power of language. We serve the public—all ages and backgrounds, both inexperienced and master writers--through a wide variety of workshops, readings and theater productions, reaching more than 3,000 community members each year.
