What we're about

Established in 2001, Henderson Writers’ Group (HWG) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Our mission is to provide a networking and critiquing forum for writers of all skill levels with resources devoted to education and craft development.

What We Do:

The Henderson Writers’ Group holds three meetings per week on the Zoom virtual platform. Our Monday (6:30pm) and Thursday (2pm) meetings are at the core of our mission offering Read & Critique opportunities. After a bit of group business, dues paid members who have requested in advance may read and then receive critique on about 6 pages. Anyone present can offer critique. On select Mondays, a guest speaker may address attendees on various topics of interest in the writing and publishing industry.

Our Wednesday meetings change weekly:
1st & 3rd Wednesday 6:30pm. Read & Critique meetings using the same criteria as Monday and Thursday.
2nd Wed. 6:30pm. Book club discussions based on selections made in advance by members.
4th Wed. Henderson Writers Board Meetings. Members are welcome unless a closed meeting is declared.
5th Wed. (When applicable). Workshop/Guest Speaker/ Special Event.

We are the proud sponsors of the annual Las Vegas Writer's Conference. Three days of workshops, classes, pitch sessions and other exciting events brought to you by a highly talented, faculty gathered from around the country. Our 2021 conference is currently "under construction. For further information about the Henderson Writers Group and our conference and to sign up for our weekly newsletter.
