The Asian American Writers' Workshop is a nonprofit literary arts organization founded in 1991 to support of writers, literature and community.[1] The Workshop also offers the annual Asian American Literary Awards and sponsors Page Turner: The Asian American Literary Festival.
In 2007, The Asian American Writers' Workshop partnered with Hyphen Magazine to start a short story contest called the Hyphen Asian American Short Story Contest, the only national, pan-Asian American writing competition of its kind[2] Previous winners include Preeta Samarasan, Sunil Yapa, Shivani Manghnani, and Timothy Tau. Previous judges include Porochista Khakpour, Yiyun Li, Alexander Chee, Jaed Coffin, Brian Leung, Monique Truong and Monica Ferrell.
