Elements was founded in September 2001 by teacher and writer Elizabeth Rollins. The goal for these classes is to create a supportive, accessible writing community in South Jersey. Beginners taste the fire, and writers-in-the-midst hone their blades. Previous offerings include: The Hearted Writer, Truly Wild Writing, Beginning Writing, The Book and Writing Studies, Book Demolition, Saints and Heros, and Fairy Tale Writing.

Elizabeth Rollins received a 2003 fiction fellowship from New Jersey Council on the Arts. Short stories from her collection, Seeing Voices have been published as Philadelphia CityPaper Fiction Winner (1999), in friskmagazine, Washington College Magazine, The Redwood Coast Review, storyglossia.com, GW Review, PMS(poem/memoir/story) Journal, and The Bellevue Literary Review. She is the author of "The Sin Eater," Corvid Press, Boston, 2004. Rollins also teaches in NJ public schools as a teaching artist with the New Jersey Writers Project.
