About the Corvids:
The Corvid Writers grew out of a Master's program at Goddard College, where its eight members met as graduate students.  The desire to write and to nurture the art of others brought them together in the mountains of Vermont and has kept them together ever since. Like the Corvids they use as their symbol, they strive to be fierce, intelligent and bold.
