The Watershed Journal
Literary Group
Welcome to The Watershed Journal Literary Group, an autonomous, grassroots, charitable nonprofit serving storytellers in our portion of the PA Wilds.
We believe in the power of storytelling, in both visual and written forms, as a way to transcend our perceived differences and inspire one another. We also believe in the transcendent influence of the natural world, ubiquitous in our region of the state. Dive in and find out how you can get connected and enjoy the diverse content our submitters and volunteers have created.
