About the Program:
In 2014, the Guild Complex named 25 Writers to Watch for our 25th Anniversary. That list included: Jamila Woods, Roger Reeves, Kathleen Rooney, Eric May, Parneshia Jones, Zayd Dohrn, Erika L. Sanchez, Coya Paz, Bill Hillman, Rey Andújar, Jac Jemc, Megan Stielstra, Kristiana Rae Colón, and many more who have gone on to wider recognition for work the Guild was championing first.
These writers are identified by our extended community and selected by the Guild as individuals whose careers represent the future of the literary arts in Chicago and beyond, and whose work reflects the spirit and values of the Guild Complex today.
