 Thoth Writers Collective

We are six writers across two continents, from Spain to California, who collaborate via Zoom, e-mail, etc., to encourage one another and improve our writing —from interpersonal and gender dilemmas, global conflicts to myth. We take our name from Thoth, the ibis-headed god who introduced writing to the ancient Egyptians.
