The Founders

Lila Cecil and Joy Parisi met at The New School's graduate creative writing program. Tired of slogging it out in jobs they did not have their hearts in and desperate for a quiet place to write and a community of writers similar to the one they had found in graduate school, they decided to open their own writing center. A year and a half later, Paragraph was born.
