Harvardwood is proud to announce the re-launch of the Harvardwood Books program this November!
Through
various partnerships, Harvardwood Books will provide an avenue for
members to have their books, screenplays (in novel form), and short
stories published, as well as provide a resource for top quality books
and short stories written by Harvard and Harvard-affiliated authors.
Come
and learn more about publishing opportunities available through
Harvardwood Books at launch events around the country! Each launch
event will feature readings from the authors of ABOVE GROUND, a
diverse, globe-trotting anthology of short fiction. The stories and
novel excerpts in ABOVE GROUND are what the publisher, Harvard Square
Editions (a partner of Harvardwood Books) calls "living fiction,"
work by contemporary authors seeking to stimulate a literary dialogue.
