In October, 2007, four poets undertook a time-honored writing exercise, drafting a new poem each day for a month. What evolved was The Grind Daily Writing Series, a quirky combination of a harrowing writing process and a uniquely supportive writers' community that has been running continuously ever since. The rules have evolved a little bit, but they're still basically the same: write and finish something. Over 200 writers now participate, and poems drafted in The Grind have showed up in the prestigious journals, award-winning books, and anthologies recognizing the best poetry in the country. Another & Another: An Anthology from the Grind Daily Writing Series features the poems of forty-seven established and up-and-coming writers who participated in the first two years, celebrating the thrilling unpredictability, intensity, and rapture of an exercise that simultaneously punishes and delights writers.
