What we're about

Welcome to the Palouse Writers Guild—A networking resource for anyone interested in becoming involved in a writing community.

The Palouse Writers Guild is a community-focused organization facilitating literary education by supporting writers' groups, author readings, workshops, writing contests, and conference attendance. Our calendar lists the dates and times of writing groups from the Moscow/Pullman area as well as regional and national conferences that we feel might be of interest to our members.

We can connect you to writing groups around the area AND if you are a member of a group we haven’t met yet, we’d love to hear from you. (Especially if you are from one of the outlying communities.)

Membership is open to writers of all genres and media. Anyone interested in free writing, critique, participating in writing exercises, attending literary events, or just socializing with groups of like-minded people is welcome to join.

*The Palouse Writers' Guild does not discriminate based on race/ethnicity/national origin, religion, gender identity/sexual orientation, disability, age, marital/family/parental status, or political beliefs.

Kenyories

Location visible to members

This is a NaNoWriMo Group from November that continues to meet weekly to edit their NaNo projects.

To join use the #kenyories tag on our Discord server "Moscow-Lewiston." (this tag apparently times out). The server is for Nanowrimo, but I'll keep it going year-round now because of the pandemic.
