The PEN Ten

The PEN Ten is a series of ten questions that authors are asked to respond to as part of the PEN America organization, which focuses on freedom of expression and literary culture. These questions encourage writers to reflect on their influences, creative processes, and views on literature and society. The format allows readers to gain insight into the thought processes and experiences of various authors, showcasing their individuality and unique perspectives on writing and the world. It's a way to celebrate the diversity of voices in literature and foster a deeper connection between writers and their audience.
