While thankfully everyone working with Writers Boot Camp staff is safe, we are keenly aware of friends and alumni who have lost their homes in the devastating wildfires. Our hearts and thoughts are with those impacted–and we’ve compiled a list of resources. Please share additional resources with Director of Development Brad Miller at brad@writersbootcamp.com.
