Mission of Trellis Literary Corporation
The purpose of the Trellis Literary Corporation was to be a nonprofit private
operating foundation which published, printed, and distributed materials that
fostered the appreciation of the fundamentals and craft of writing in the English
language; provided a forum for learning, research, and sharing of literature; and
helped writers of all ages find a voice for original, creative expression.
Immanuel Kant wrote: “In all beautiful art the essential thing is form.” Just as a
trellis provides support and form for the growth of a plant to become stronger and
more beautiful, so the Trellis Literary Corporation provided support and form for the
growth of writers’ language skills so that their writing would become stronger and
more beautiful. This corporation offered writers the opportunity to develop a solid
knowledge of the English language through education and practice in the
conventions of poetry.
