KW Writer's Alliance: Oral Storytelling

Presented by the KW Writer's Alliance

There are well over 1000 writers in the region of Waterloo. Some of them belong to formal organizations and many others belong to ad hoc groups meeting informally in cafes and each other’s homes. Few of these groups know each other exist and many writers in the region don’t even realize the abundance of groups available. Our mission is to create an umbrella organization to offer opportunities to all of the writing groups in our region. We will be running workshops on the business and craft of writing, bringing in guest speakers including editors and agents, reaching out to local book clubs, and helping writers find the local group that is the best fit for them.
