Aaron Zimmerman
Founder and Executive Director
This Fall, Aaron will be continuing his nearly 30 years of supporting writers through his new venture, the Bad Habits Writing Academy. He will also continue running the Friday Work Room, starting in September 2024. BHWA will offer a range of creative writing workshops, one-on-one consulting, and the opportunity to be part of a supportive ongoing writing community.
You can subscribe to the BHWA’s mailing list through our substack, and you will get notified of future offerings, along with occasional prompts and posts about writing. Aaron will continue to host the free Friday Work room for subscribers. More info can be found here. Feel free to also reach out to Aaron at badhabitswritingacademy@gmail.com.
