Website of the Week -- PEN

I mentioned PEN in the blog yesterday concerning Burn This Book, so I wanted to highlight PEN's website this week for those who may not have yet visited. The website has a lot of interesting things to explore, ranging from programs like Freedom to Write (which "works to protect the freedom of the written word wherever it is imperiled") to blogs written by PEN members.

PEN is "an associate of writers working to advance literature, defend free expression, and foster international literary fellowship." They are currently featuring translations of poetry and prose, and the inaugural installment of their online Translation Slam.
