We are dedicated to uplifting the stories we all hold, in a way that is accessible and inclusive. Through individualized support, we will build the goals and accountability needed to write that works for you.
Aurora and Ezra met through Vermont’s local NaNoWriMo group and quickly realized they had a lot to talk about. Beyond writing, they were both stuck in jobs that made them unhappy – what they really wanted was to be writing or talking about writing or thinking about writing or reading about writing. They decided to combine the powers of their MFA’s, queer-ness, and neurodivergent aspects to form The StoryWilds. Now, they help writers grow the way the two of them were helped – through, commitment, craft, and community.
