Riot Lit Dot Com

We, the Riot Lit Collective, come from a variety of
backgrounds_some of us have been published by
major New York publishers, others by independent
presses, and yet others are self-published. Some of us
hold Ph.D.'s while others have graduated from
nothing but the hard lessons of the streets.
Regardless of our differences, we all share a
common goal.

This collective is our unified voice, thick with
revolution and a desire to disrupt the status quo. We
are the fractured demographic. We represent the
forgotten, the ignored, the discontent, the
disenfranchised_yet we refuse to be overlooked.
We refuse the passive role that writers are expected
to embrace. We defy all preconceived notions of
how a writer should create and thrive within modern
culture.

Our strength is our ability to maneuver outside of the
literary establishment. We do not seek endorsements
from talk show hosts. We do not write paint-by-
numbers beach reads. We are here to change the
dominant paradigm. We write in the knowledge
that very soon our words-your words-will explode
across this planet like a million dirty bombs.

We have found each other and now we have found
you. We are your voice and you are ours, and
together, *this is our revolution*.

Yours,

The RiotLit Collective
