Southern Writers Guild
MJ Polk, Canary Vale, primalbeet, GrayWe are the Southern Writers’ Guild: a deliberate assembly of stubborn scribes—poets, novelists, essayists, playwrights, songwriters—who stake our claim on this tangled South, by blood or by choice or by some inexplicable pull that won’t let go.

Authors
The writers behind this newsletter.
The Southern Copywriter--offering clients Proofreading, Copy-editing, and Developmental-editing services. But I'm not your average copywriter. I have a passion for writing both Fiction and Creative Non-fiction. aka- Hank Cotton
Nothing here is meant to fix you. Only to see you. I hold up the mirror. You decide what’s beautiful about the damage. \ud83c\udfc6Featured by American Songwriter
Writer, musician, and feral philosopher. I craft poetry, short fiction, rogue songs, and offbeat truths from the crossroads of weird and wonder. Refined for public use, but still a little wild under the hood. www.primalbeet.com
Gen X writer with a fake name—roamin’ the Dirty South with incense prayers & mixtape ghosts. Sometimes fiction, always true: stories stitched from kudzu, cigar boxes, found faith, & the ridiculocity of having raised ourselves.
