Dear Writers:

We are so glad you have found us and hope we can help each other find a path to writing and publication (an option) this year! This will be an amazing year to write your story no matter the format, be it nonfiction, memoir, poetry, or fiction. There are many options available to us. Book sales are higher now than they have been in the past two years. It’s a great time to be a writer.

Do you have a plan to reach your writing goal(s)? Do you need help defining what it is you want to do and how to achieve it? We have seven Manuscript Critiques (free) during the year, three speaker workshops, and our annual conference the end of August 2024.

We’d love to hear from you! You can reach us at CastleRockWriters@gmail.com.

Thank you,

Jean Jacobsen, CRW President
