Teachers & Writers Collaborative was founded in 1967 by a group of educators and writers who believed professional writers could make a unique contribution to the teaching of writing and literature. T&W promotes collaboration between teachers and writers by providing creative writing programs in schools, publishing literary arts education resources, and hosting an online discussion group for teachers and writers. Since our founding, T&W has served as a model for writers-in-the-schools programs around the world.

Teachers & Writers Magazine is a quarterly periodical with ideas for writers who work in schools and teachers of creative writing. It covers contemporary issues and innovations in creative writing education, and engages writers, educators, and students in a conversation on the nature of creativity and the imagination. Recent issues have included interviews with Jayne Cortez, Kevin Young, Dennis Lehane, Kimiko Hahn, Billy Collins, and Quiara Alegría Hudes; articles about teaching the ode and the sestina, about inspiring students with the work of poets Kenneth Koch and Naomi Shihab Nye; and about welcoming music and art into the writing classroom.

Occasional special issues feature in-depth explorations of subjects of particular interest to our readers. Our most recent special issues focused on translation, on collaboration, and on using comics in the classroom to teach creative writing.

Teachers & Writers Magazine is published quarterly and is available by subscription or with a T&W membership.
