About Our Club
We are a friendly community of people who enjoy writing. Our members include people who range from beginning writers to published authors. All genres are represented including fiction, non-fiction, poetry, children's, and more.
We gather once a month to share our work, offer thoughtful feedback, and discuss the writing and publishing processes. We meet on the second Wednesday of each month at the Frisco Public Library in Frisco, Texas.
Are you looking for an accountability partner, seeking supportive feedback on your writing, or wanting to learn how to publish a book? Join us for inspiration and education. Our encouraging, respectful members look forward to helping you on your writing journey.
