What we’re about

Brick City Writers is a space for those of us in Newark who don’t feel like takin’ the path into Manhattan. Newark has a voice, and it deserves to be heard. Calling all aspiring authors: come share your poetry, short stories, or that unfinished novel you keep meaning to finish. We meet every other weekend to write, give feedback, and help each other get better. No attitude, no gatekeeping. Just real support and honest work.
I started this group because I couldn’t find a space like it in the city. I’m working on my own novel (The Arcadia Project), and I wanted to build something where writers in Newark could come together and celebrate the stories. If that speaks to you; grab a coffee, pull up a chair, and don’t forget to tip that barista.
