Local press Jamii Publishing will release the Women Who Submit (WWS) anthology Accolades edited by Rachael Warecki and Tisha Marie Reichle-Aguilera. They will debut the book at the Association of Writers and Writing Programs Conference in San Antonio.

Accolades is a celebration of submissions, acceptances, and publications by members of the literary organization WWS. WWS seeks to empower women and nonbinary writers by creating physical and virtual spaces for sharing information, supporting, and encouraging literary submissions and publication process. WWS is completely open to all women and nonbinary writers who are seeking online support and information. Members across the country gather for monthly submission parties in public venues and private homes to share resources, submit, and support each other with claps and cheers.

Jamii believes that poetry is greater than all its parts, that it’s truth from deep within. In its greatness, in its vastness, in its enormity we find that poetry is all encompassing and visionary– seeing deep into our history, the breadth of our present, and far into our future. They believe creative writing is a tool that gives voice to the voiceless.
