Fabulous. Ferocious. Fragile. Fresh. Female. Generation F is all of these things and more. It is anything and everything we want it to be. That freedom, that unlimited potential, is what Girls Write Now stands for and offers to its participants. These girls have the world at their fingertips, and they dig in, examining their own lives, the state of their neighborhoods, and everything going on today while marching unafraid into the future and all it promises.

For the past twenty years, Girls Write Now has mentored underserved young women to find their voice through the power of writing and community. Distinguished three times by the White House as one of the nation’s top after-school arts and culture programs, and twice by the Nonprofit Excellence Awards as one of New York’s top ten nonprofits, Girls Write Now reminds young women that everyone has a story to tell, a story the world needs to hear.

Inside these pages, Girls Write Now mentees explore what it means to be a part of Generation F, guided by the passion, experience, and dedication of the women who have come before them. The work in Generation F: The Girls Write Now 2018 Anthology speaks to what it means to be a feminist, why we need to fight for essential freedoms, and the triumph in speaking up and speaking out.
