These Holidays are for Community

Thursday night was another great time in L.A., as at the close of an incredible year, the Inside Out Writers rocked the house with an amazing holiday party!

Ever since I first walked into IOW’s office back in 2014, the place and people there have been a pivotal part of J.T.’s growth, so this holiday season it’s an honor to ask readers to consider supporting the organization with a Donation.

Every donation will go towards supporting more of IOW’s creative writing programs both inside and outside the halls, as well as public readings, parties, and much more for our youth. Give it a shot! I guarantee you won’t regret it.

And if you’re not following us online already, you can do so here, here, and here!
