As we plan ahead for next year in the Charlotte Writers' Club, we are looking for new Board members who can assume leadership positions in the organization.  This is an ideal opportunity to develop new organizational skills and to give back to the community of writers who nurture each other in our area.  If you are interested in serving on the Board, we invite you to the Board party at Mary Struble Deery's house, our dedicated membership chair, on Sunday, March 3, from 5-7 p.m.  Contact either Mary or David Radavich, our current president, for further information.  Stretch your wings!

  

On March we once again hold our annual critique groups "powwow," designed to bring together our members who would like to strengthen their networks to other writers in their chosen forms.  Groups of our members meet regularly, usually once a month but as often as they wish, to share work and get feedback from supportive but honest colleagues. 

  

We invite both newer members who are not currently in a group and those who may want to expand their group or branch out into new areas.  Attendees will be able to visit multiple groups to find what they need.    

  

Our groups meet by day or night, in the north and in the south of Charlotte, on-line, in bookstores, cafes, or people's homes.  Find a place where you fit in and your work can be tested and improved.

 

We welcome writers in all genres and forms to join our Charlotte-area community.  Your membership in the Charlotte Writers' Club helps support writers, readers, and literacy at a critical time in our nation's and our city's history. Dues are $30 for individuals, $40 for couples, $20 for students, and $100 for patrons. You can pay on-line at www.charlottewritersclub.org or send a check to the Charlotte Writers' Club, P.O. Box 220954, Charlotte, NC 28222. Thank you for your support!
