INK Literary Magazine - Paperback

by Dakarai Sarvis (Illustrator), Naimah Joseph (Editor), Ehbonni Cromwell-Reid (Editor)

Writing is expressive. It is a way in which one can show vulnerability and strength, humility and pride, curiosity and candor. The high school students at Preparatory Academy for Writers (PAW) challenge themselves, and are not afraid to speak their minds. They write about things that matter to them; whether it is about their lives as teenagers, or simply an imaginative story that highlights an important issue. Young adulthood is a moment of transition; these changes are pertinent to shaping who they will become later in life, and as a result they need a medium for their voices to be heard. The publication of this anthology is an escape as well as a reflection of many ideas (both real and fiction) that enable them to form an understanding of the world in which we live. This volume of INK allows the reader to connect with each writer's imagination and/or thoughts; thus, bringing literature to life.
