Founded in 1993 by writers Po Bronson, Ethan Canin and Ethan Watters,[1] the Writers Grotto is a community of working writers which provides support, feedback, and community to its members.[2] Members have won Pulitzer prizes and Guggenheim Fellowships and penned New York Times bestsellers, national TV series and movies.
