The Josh Crews Writing Club celebrated a successful and inspiring book launch for its 2025 anthology on Thursday, April 17, at the Buddy Taylor/Wadsworth cafeteria.
The club is sponsored by the Flagler County Education Foundation.
The event was a testament to the creativity and dedication of over 200 student-authors from elementary, middle and high schools in Flagler County. The "Write On" anthology has a diverse collection of short stories, poems and essays.
The highlight of the event was the opportunity to hear directly from the authors as several students took the stage to share excerpts from their works. The readings showcased the range of talent and unique voices nurtured within the writing club.
Attendees were treated to imaginative narratives, poignant poetry and insightful prose, demonstrating the students' growth in storytelling and literary expression. The authors shared their inspirations and the journeys behind their writing.
Copies of the book were available for purchase at the event, and many of the attendees acquired signed copies. The book launch served not only as a celebration of the students' published work but also as a demonstration of the importance of fostering creativity and literacy among young people.
