Some say there are more writers today in Vermont than dairy cattle. While this sentiment is subject to dispute, there is no question Vermont is steeped in both a rich agrarian and literary tradition. Rudyard Kipling wrote The Jungle Book in 1894 while living in Brattleboro. In the early 1920's, when a resident of South Shaftsbury, Robert Frost penned many of the poems in his first of four Pulitzer Prize collections, New Hampshire: A Poem With Notes and Grace Notes - including "Stopping by the Woods on a Snowy Evening."

In 1929,Dorothy Canfield and Helen Hartness Flanders helped found what would evolve into today's thriving League of Vermont Writers, an organization committed to encourage writing and expand publication opportunities for Vermonters. For 83 years, the annual Bread Loaf Writers' Conference has inspired and graduated some of American's most distinguished writers.

Cabot is proud to introduce its first annual Vermont Writer's List, a compilation of well known and lesser known writers living in the Green Mountain State, gamely stalking the allusive word, the next evocative turn of phrase. Poets, children's book authors, fiction and non-fiction writers are listed here with pride and the utmost respect for those in pursuit of this oft-times lonely craft.
