The Bluegrass Writers Coalition is a gathering of authors who work to promote literature in all forms across Kentucky. In From Pen to Page II, the members of BWC share their talents and their hearts. In this selection of poetry, fiction, nonfiction, memoirs, and nostalgia, you will... ... journey with a hit man as he catches a train to Miami. ... welcome spring through the branches of redbud tree. ... peek inside an eastern Kentucky home and into the life of a faithful wife. ... go fishing for a thirty-inch trout. ... find a unicorn in an enchanted forest. ... find a friend who just might turn out to be The One for you. ... celebrate an anniversary with two glasses of wine. ... meet a little girl with an adorable curl. ... rescue a dog that becomes a faithful friend.

BWC members are active writers in all genres who believe that the printed word enhances the lives of writers and readers. The coalition endeavors to showcase writers and their works through discussions, readings, and book-signing events. The BWC meets the second Thursday of each month and is open to all writers.
