AWP’s Media Resources for Writers and Writing Enthusiasts


In 2013, Kevin Sharp, a writer from Palo Alto, California, published his first novel, After Dakota. An experienced writer of articles, short stories, and book reviews, he previously worked as a freelance contributor for Bookmarks Magazine in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Alongside his day-to-day activities as a writer in Palo Alto, Kevin Sharp maintains affiliations with the Association of Writers & Writing Programs (AWP). 

In addition to overseeing its annual Conference & Bookfair, AWP offers a variety of resources for writers, editors, and publishers as well as writing students and teachers. For more than 40 years, the organization has published The Writers Chronicle, a magazine full of articles, news, and information pieces on literature and the art of writing. 

Published bimonthly, The Writer’s Chronicle features essays on writing techniques alongside interviews of today’s top writers. The publication also covers publishing trends and contains information to help connect writers with publication opportunities, grants, awards, and upcoming conferences. 

Alongside The Writer’s Chronicle, AWP publishes the Writer’s News and the Writer’s Notebook, which together offer career advice, writing tips, and publication announcements. The organization also produces a podcast series featuring presentations from the AWP Conference & Bookfair. To learn more about AWP’s magazine and media resources, visit awpwriter.org.
