Rhode Trip: Selected Short Fiction, Non-Fiction, Poetry and Prose from the Association of Rhode Island Authors; an ARIA Anthology

The Association of Rhode Island Authors (ARIA) is an IRS-recognized, 501(c)3 non-profit organization of local, published writers of both fiction and non-fiction committed to raising awareness of the outstanding written works crafted by writers in Rhode Island and in nearby communities. ARIA has become the definitive referral center for bookstores, libraries, and readers seeking information about and presentations from Rhode Island authors and their books. ARIA authors are available for speaking engagements, book signings, readings, lectures, workshops, and other activities that promote local writers and writing. Among its activities, ARIA provides free educational presentations to both its members and the public, represents the state at art and literary festivals throughout the region, and mentors young writers on the publishing process. Membership in ARIA is open to any local author who may be traditionally published, self-published or indie-published in any paper or electronic format.
