Welcome!
The objectives of the GLVWG are
to provide its members with a network of support and
resources in the field of writing; to act as central
information point for all activities in the field
of writing and the publishing industry; and to advance
the writing interests of its members.
GLVWG meets monthly from September
through June on the 4th Saturday of the month at the
Palmer Library, Palmer Township. A short business
meeting is followed by the SPOTLIGHT, a time when
one of GLVWG's members reads something he/she has
written. The program which follows focuses on some
aspect of the craft of writing or the business of
publishing. GLVWG's members write short or long fiction
of various genres, poetry, essays and non-fiction.
The organization also fosters critique groups, aligning
writers with others who write similar material.
Member
dues support GLVWG's free programs. Nonmembers are
invited to participate in three free events before
joining.
A member's contact information is used for club business only. Names, addresses, email or telephone numbers are not released to anyone outside the GLVWG board.
Limited-enrollment workshops
are member benefits. Interested nonmembers who contact
us will be notified one week prior to the workshop
in the event that spaces are available.
Some events, such as the
annual conference, have special non-member prices and
are open to all.
Unless otherwise noted,
events are held at the Palmer Library (directions
on "About Us" menu above).
