A Message From the Founder
The suburbs can be isolating for anyone, but especially for writers. Even if you have a desk or a room of your own, there’s a dish to be washed, a bill to be paid. Or as someone once said, "the great siren call of the washing machine.”
It has always been a dream of mine to find a place in the ’burbs where writers could go to write quietly while being in community. A place with literary events, like workshops and readings.
I never found that place. So when the opportunity presented itself, I decided to make it happen. What was formerly The Rectangle Studio & Gallery, has now been transformed to the space I dreamed of. I hope you will feel as welcome and productive as I do there. This space is for anyone who is serious about writing and just as serious about the community it takes to be successful and stay sane as a writer.

"A great place to set distractions aside and get to the business of getting your work out in the world. A wonderful addition to the writing community!"
