... so what's YOUR story?
|
Everybody has a story.
Still Waters Collective is your space to set that story free. Whether you're a high school student seeking a forum for your opinions, a single father searching for an outlet to vent your thoughts or a retired bus driver who's finally ready to finish that novel .... we all have a story inside.
Still Waters Collective is a resource network for language artists and enthusiasts. More importantly, SWC has crafted a series of programs and community initiatives that use creative writing and spoken word as tools for building leadership and shaping self-esteem.
We look forward to hearing your story SOON!
