The WWS community is a model and force for positive, necessary, inclusive change in literature and publishing." -Cody Sisco, editor, publisher, and author of Broken Mirror"Not only has WWS succeeded in empowering its previously marginalized members to submit and resubmit, it has proved to be a beacon of light, inclusivity and hope in a traumatic time of social and political intolerance.

"The Women Who Submit community has taught me so much. Submitting is difficult for most of us and it is as important as writing and editing. Acceptances and rejections should be celebrated because you engaged in the process. Keep track. Most importantly encouragement is validating and feeds courage." -Romaine Washington"As a new Los Angeles resident, Women Who Submit gave me the opportunity to grow relationships with other women and nonbinary people in the organization. I am reminded always that my participation is never passive but one in which leadership is always encouraged. WWS is certainly a model for what we can lean into in the present." -Muriel LeungAccolades is a celebration of submissions, acceptances, and publications by members of the literary organization Women Who Submit (WWS).
