==History==
GrubStreet was founded in 1997 in Boston, Massachusetts. Founder Eve Bridburg opened GrubStreet as a place for anyone interested in creative writing to gain instruction and guidance. At first, GrubStreet only offered fiction workshops, had two instructors (Bridburg one of them) and eight students. GrubStreet demonstrated early success when, a year later in 1998, HarperCollins published student Jamie Katz's mystery novel ''Dead Low Tide''. By 2001 GrubStreet had nearly 100 students, over a dozen instructors, and courses in poetry, screenwriting, nonfiction, and playwriting. GrubStreet became a fully accredited nonprofit in 2002.〔
Since then, GrubStreet has taught over 10,000 Boston-area writers of all levels and has put over $1 million into the pockets of writers. It has a fully staffed office overlooking Boston Common in downtown Boston and operates on an annual budget of $800,000, funded by grants, donations, and membership dues. New books affiliated with GrubStreet include: Jenna Blum's "The Stormchasers;" Jonathan Papernick's "There is No Other;" Lynne Griffin's "Sea Escape;" Michelle Hoover's "The Quickening;" Marianne Leone's "Knowing Jesse;" Bruce Machart's "The Wake of Forgiveness;" Randy Susan Meyers's "The Murderer's Daughters" and "The Comfort Of Lies"; Amy MacKinnon's "Tethered"; Lisa Genova's "Still Alice"; and Daphne Kalotay's "Russian Winter," (Nichole Bernier )'s "The Unfinished Work of Elizabeth D", Julie Wu's forthcoming The Third Son and Henriette Power Lazaridis' forthcoming "Clean Monday." 〔
