HOUSTON WRITERS GUILD

Fall Contests Winners Are Here!

Welcome!

Yes, you're at the right place. Fort Bend Writers Guild was an active Houston, Texas area writers group, so active that we've expanded our scope to include all Houston Writers and we're now Houston Writers Guild -- please change your links from www.fortbendwritersguild.org to www.houstonwritersguild.org.

We will still have our weekly meetings every Monday at Barnes & Noble - First Colony Sugar Land from 7 to 9 p.m. Visitors are welcome on a one-time basis. After that, membership is required.

Our weekly critique MEETINGS are devoted to helping each other polish manuscripts for publication. Our members are writing what is best described as "mass market" and "genre" novels, including mystery, romance, historical, women's interests, sci-fi, young adult, and children's stories. Almost all genre are welcome.

In addition to weekly meetings, Houston Writers Guild sponsors WRITERS WORKSHOPS and WRITERS CONTESTS. We usually have a Christmas season social gathering for members and their significant others.

Non-members joining at the time of workshop registration get a discount on membership from $35/2010 year to $30/2010 year and do not have to pay the $5 surcharge on the workshop.
