ron Currie, Founder & Editor

With over ten years experience writing his own books and editing others’, Ron believes the best critique has two principle features: honesty and kindness.

Ron is the author of four novels, all published by Viking-Penguin. His most recent book, The One-Eyed Man, was called “dark, tender, and oh-so-timely” by USA Today. He’s the recipient of numerous awards, including the New York Public Library Young Lions award and the Metcalf award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. In 2016, he received the Pushcart Prize. His work has been translated into fifteen languages. When not writing or editing, he volunteers at The Telling Room, a nonprofit writing center for children, where he leads in-school residencies and works in the Young Emerging Author program, a one-on-one mentorship with promising high school writers.
