What we're about
Rochester Writers serves new, working, and published writers. We host writing groups, conferences, and workshops in Michigan. The network includes authors and novelists, journalists and reporters, poets, songwriters, and bloggers. We welcome fiction and non-fiction writers. Our signature event is the Rochester Writers' Conference in October at Oakland University, in the heart of Southeast Michigan. The conference attracts attendees from several states and Canada.
Rochester Writers runs the Freelance Marketplace Writers' Group. It meets on the third Tuesday of the month on Zoom at 7:30 p.m. to Discuss the Business of Writing. Our Spring Conference will have a main theme each year. And our Fall conference is a general writers' event with workshops, lectures, and panel discussions for fiction, non-fiction, and business concepts. With a diverse community of speakers, Rochester Writers hosts special workshops and events for venues, such as public libraries, in the surrounding area. Professional development presentations are available on request. Rochester Writers also hosts a writing contest throughout the year. A nominal fee to enter with prizes and recognition. Several categories to choose from.
If you're an author, freelance journalist, blogger, poet, songwriter, etc. and you want to tune your craft, promote your talent, and sell your work, please join us for one of our many events. Please visit our website for more details: http://www.RochesterWriters.com

This meeting is online using Zoom. It's FREE, EASY, and SECURE. You will need a webcam and microphone to interact. The official link for the meeting will be emailed on the day of that Tuesday morning. Once you're at the website meeting location, you will be asked for permission to use your camera and microphone - just follow the prompts.
This Rochester based group is open to all new, working, and published writers, photographers, and illustrators. All genres welcome and free to attend. We are NOT a critique group - we discuss the business of writing. We meet the third Tuesday of the month* - come once, once in a while, or every time - hope you can join us.
