Write Like Us
Write Like Us is an equity-based creative writing program at five Twin Cities metro-area community colleges: Anoka-Ramsey Community College, Century College, Minneapolis Community and Technical College, Normandale Community College, and º£½ÇÉçÇø.
Write Like Us centers and celebrates the work of BIPOC writers and writing students, fostering literary mentorship and leadership as it builds a platform for shared stories, voices, and lived experiences.
Write Like Us will host several writers in residence during the 2022-2023 academic year, including nationally prominent BIPOC authors and four local BIPOC author-mentors who will work throughout the year in fellowships with BIPOC student mentees at each of our campuses. During the Fall of 2022, the author mentors will visit each participating campus and national author Kiese Laymon will visit º£½ÇÉçÇø (in conversation with Michael Kleber-Diggs).
