Member Lawrence Wilson, author of “Catching Chickens”, provided education about interviewing at our August 5th Guild meeting. Larry demonstrated techniques to help make the person being interviewed more comfortable Join us each month for education about the business of writing and publishing. Our next meeting will be on Tuesday, September 2nd, 2025.

The Green Bay Area Writers Guild meets at Bay Family Restaurant at the corner of Military Avenue and Ninth Street on Green Bay’s west side. The meeting runs from 5:30 to 7:30.

We meet in the back conference room by the hotel check-in desk and bathrooms. If you come early and would like to, you can order food and mingle with other writers until we begin.

Member Erich will offer a presentation on world building at the September gathering. Feel free to come and check us out.

Writing prompt: Bridge the words, in order from grief to stray to storm and finish with stork. Have fun with it.

Check out the posts on our blog page.

Our goal is helping members (and guests) learn more about writing, editing, publishing, legal issues, marketing, public relations, and other publishing aspects in today’s world. After introductions and sharing good news–like a new book coming out, winning a contest, or getting published in a magazine–we offer education on an important writing topic. Then members and guests can share what they have written or are writing.

If you plan on attending and want to read, please let the moderator know when the meeting begins. We ask you to limit reading to give us time for the feedback you want. Feel free to ask questions of those attending to learn more about our craft. It’s an open forum among friends. There are published authors among us and novice writers, so be bold and inquire. 

We offer a critique page for members to evaluate the writing of other members. Use the link above for instructions.

Check out our blogs and feel free to submit one for consideration. They usually post on Thursdays…but not always.

Future 2025 Guild Gatherings:  September 2nd, October 7th, November 4th, December 2nd.

There are no membership fees but if you become active and involved we will build a writer’s page for you on our site. We merely ask for a voluntary contribution to cover the cost of website hosting. If interested, please attend a meeting.

If you have information about writing contests or special programs, let us know and we will post it here.
