Rocktown Writers Guild Monthly Meeting

Whether you’re scribbling your first poem or plotting your tenth novel, this is your chance to meet and network with other authors.

If you’ve been looking for that boost, that community, that connection—you won’t find a better place than the RWG.

Since she started promoting her books on social media in December 2022, Liesl West has gained 6K followers on Instagram, 3K on TikTok, 7K on Threads, over 1K email newsletter subscribers—and sold 2,000+ copies in a year. She’s leveraged her social media presence to grow and connect with her reader base, build community with authors, promote her books, and launch her career as an independent fantasy romance author. You can find her on social media everywhere @authorlieslwest.

Liesl writes twisted fairytale retellings in a mermaid court universe, full of romance, magic, strong female characters, and moody, broody love interests. She lives with her husband and their fluffy feline overlords in Broadway, Virginia, where she devours books and watches way too many ocean documentaries.

Join Liesl in a behind the scenes glimpse at her marketing routine, where she’ll show you how she navigates social media without pulling her hair out.

While we meet at the library, the RWG is neither endorsed by, nor affiliated, with the library.
