IWWG Write Forward Anthology

The International Women's Writing Guild is soliciting work for an anthology called:

Something Inside So Strong—Women's Words on Resilience, Resistance, and Reverence

We create the future with our thoughts and words. We are the culture-makers and the art we make, the stories we tell, matters. Our words can change minds, light up the dark, inspire action. What comes to mind when you think of hope? What revelations are igniting your imagination?

What would you like to say to an old-growth forest, to a baby born today, to the land on which you live?

We are accepting previously unpublished work in all genres: poetry (up to 3 poems, 60 lines per poem), non-fiction, fiction and essays (up to 3000 words.) Specially interested in work by BIPOC and emergtin writers.


DEADLINE: March 31, 2026

IWWG's 2025 anthology aligns with the 69th United Nations Commission on the Status of Women (CSW69). This event is a call to action, reminding us of the power of storytelling to illuminate the 12 critical areas of concern outlined in the Beijing Platform for Action—from education and health to climate justice and human rights. The 2025 IWWG Anthology, supported by The de Groot Foundation, brings together voices from around the world to reflect on these themes. Order on Amazon. 

Explore our past anthologies to see the legacy you’re helping to build.
