We are thrilled to share that WritingWorkshops.com alumni Elizabeth Kleinfeld has been recognized as one of the top emerging literary voices of the year. Her work has been selected for inclusion in The Masters Review's Best Emerging Writers 2024, a prestigious anthology showcasing ten exceptional short stories and essays from promising writers around the world.
This year's anthology was curated by acclaimed author Gina Chung, whose novel Sea Change was longlisted for the Center for Fiction First Novel Prize. In her introduction to the collection, Chung praises the selected works for how they "ask questions about power, intimacy, control, our imperfect knowledge of one another and the world around us."
Elizabeth joins an impressive roster of talented writers in this collection, including Jacqueline Gu, Beth Richards, Margaret Adams, Aurora Huiza, Emilie Pascale Beck, River Lucero, Jillian Weiss, Vicky Grut, and Laura Price Steele.
