Green Bay Area

Wishing everyone Merry Christmas and success in 2026!

There was an excellent turnout of more than twenty members and guests at our gathering on Tuesday, December Guild members working on an educational exercise at December 2025 meeting.2nd.We did a writing prompt about Santa and exchanged books in addition to listening to four excellent readings.

Join us in January for the next Green Bay Area Writers’ Guild meeting on the sixth. Ring in 2026 with writers and friends.

Guests are welcome, so if you  plan on attending, come and see what we’re all about.  You can also find us on FaceBook.

We meet at Bay Family Resaurant 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.

—–Writing prompt: Think about the best Christmas present you ever received and write about the person who gave it to you.

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.
