After a smashingly successful inaugural year of S.W.A.T. the NOWHEARTHIS! program published/presented The Armadillo, a suberb anthology of creative writing by student participants of the program. This perfect-bound softcover book captures the energy of Year One in once concise volume.
For 2009, we are proud to announce that we will be publishing The Barracuda, our second anthology of the greatest hits of this years S.W.A.T. program!
The Barracuda will showcase: student-written stories, poems, personal essays, reviews and screenplays documenting the success of Toronto’s first-ever ongoing writers-in-schools program.
The Armadillo & The Barracuda allow students to publish alongside their mentors and senior writers, exposing them to the ins and outs of the publishing process. What’s more, the students’ pieces are prefaced by personal essays by the writers, contextualizing the students’ creative work and outlining the workshops they developed to draw out each student’s original voice.
