Welcome to the Charlotte Writers’ Club website!
The Charlotte Writers' Club (or CWC, as our members affectionately call it) provides a great opportunity for writers of all forms—and there are so many—to meet and discuss the latest trends, commiserate on projects, find critique groups, and participate in contests and workshops. This club is for you, the writer, to help develop your craft and keep the words coming. Sign up for our free newsletter to stay up-up-to date on the latest CWC speakers, contests, workshops, and member kudos.
This club has something for everyone. Come meet some of your fellow writers, poets, novelists, authors, creative writers, short story writers, essayists, articles writers, journalists, dramatists, editors, fablers, fiction writers, ghost writers, historical writers, lyricists, playwrights, reporters, rhymers, satirists, scriptwriters, short-story writers, sonneteers, storytellers, autobiographers, biographers, and many more.
So far in 2013, we've cosponsored a Multigenerational Program of Reading and Discussion, held our annual Selected Members' Reading, and welcomed a record crowd to our meeting in February, a panel discussion about the publishing business we cosponsored with the Women's National Book Association.
Don't miss our drawing for a free writer's retreat at beautiful Wildacres Writing Workshop in the Blue Ridge Mountains! At our May 21, 2013 meeting, all paid-up members of the Charlotte Writers' Club in attendance will be eligible to enter the drawing. Judi Hill, director of WWW, has graciously donated a stay during retreat week, June 30-July 6, a $370 value, to a Charlotte Writers' Club member. This is a great opportunity for all serious writers: "There are no instructors and no programs (except for optional evening readings)."
For more information on Wildacres Writing Workshop, go to http://www.wildacreswriters.com/. Remember, you must be in attendance at the May 21 meeting in order to win this great prize!
