Support the Simpson Literary Project
Once upon a time, do you remember when you first read a story that moved you? Remember when you fell in love with an author's work? Remember when you had a teacher who opened up the world of language and literature? Remember that now, and please consider supporting the Simpson Literary Project.

The writing of great books by our Simpson/Joyce Carol Oates Prize Winners and Finalists.
