The first days

This blog will share, mainly in pictures, the 2-week visit of 5 young writers from Freetown, Sierra Leone, who are visiting Brooks School and living and working with some of its students and teachers. This visit started as an online writing collaboration which spanned the spring semester and sparked the idea of an in-person visit. While here, the Sierra Leoneans are working on many genres of writing while they live the life of boarding school students and enjoy many experiences around New England.
