Workshops for Writers - July 13: Community Partner Networking Day
Join the St. Louis Writers Guild from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. CDST on Saturday, July 13, 2024, for a free networking event with some of our area’s many writing support organizations and independent bookstores.
Our presenters will include Main Street Books of St. Charles, Volunteer Lawyers and Accountants for the Arts, Sisters in Crime, and many more. We will gather at The Lodge Des Peres, 1050 Des Peres Rd., St. Louis, MO, 63131. From discovering the perfect support group for your own writing projects to learning how to arrange a book signing or consignment plan, the July program will have something for everyone.
The St. Louis Writers Guild has a lot to offer area writers, but no one organization can address all needs. However, St. Louis has a wealth of writing and publishing support groups, and we’d love for you to meet our friends.
Join us for a morning of networking and information sharing. Each of our guests will have a booth from which to speak to attendees individually. During the group presentation time, all the representatives will explain their mission and services. Light refreshments will be served. For more information, visit the Guild website: https://www.stlwritersguild.org/.
