Save The Date: Saturday, May 16, 2026 from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. for Come Write With Us! It’s a hands on writing workshop at the Aging Disability and Resource Center (ADRC), 300 S. Adams Street, Green Bay. Details to follow or contact: dorothyseehausen@gmail.com

Our next Green Bay Area Writers Guild meeting will be happening on Tuesday, May 5th. Things get rolling at 5:30 and wrap up around 7:30 with a focus on critiquing, Arrive at 4:30 if you would like to join other writers and eat first.

We currently meet at Bay Family Restaurant at the corner of 9th Street and Military Avenue on Green Bay’s west side. Right now we meet in the back conference room by the hotel check-in desk and bathrooms. Stay tuned, though. With 28 at our April meeting, space was limited, so as we grow we may relocate to accommodate more people.

Feel free to ask questions of those attending to learn more about our craft. It’s an open forum among friends. We are published authors and novice writers, so be bold and inquire.

Guests are always welcome. Come and see what we’re all about.  You can also find us on Face Book.

—–Writing prompt—–

How would you describe a person of the male persuasion? Rugged? Handsome? Stinky? (Don’t worry, we’ll prompt the opposite side of the human condition).

Check out the posts on our blog page. Blogs help writers become “published.”

Some survey suggested that 80% of people would like to write a book. What percentage do: 1%. Our goal is helping members (and guests) learn more about writing, editing, publishing, legal issues, marketing, public relations, and other aspects of becoming published authors. 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. This site also has a reference page.

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.

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

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

2026 Guild Gatherings:  May 5th, June 2nd, July 7th, August 4th, September 1st, October 6th, November 3rd, and December 1st. Stay tuned should dates change.

There are no membership fees but if you become active and involved we will build a personal page for you on this site. We can link it to your site or where your work can be found. 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 a writing contest, please let us know and we’ll post it on our Contests Available page. See menu.
