A Community of Writers

Join Us

Reasons to join the Guild:


Because we're actively creating a community of writers to help support local writers and lovers of the literary arts in the Capital District area.

Because writers need readers, and a community in which to belong.

During the last two years, the Guild has

  • Conducted writing workshops on such topics as newspaper writing, memoir, poetry, free-lance writing, and publishing
  • Facilitated peer writing groups
  • Hosted readings by area writers
  • Partnered with the New York State Writers Institute, Theater Voices, and The Arts Center of the Capital Region
  • Developed a Guide to Local Authors
  • Published Peer Glass, an anthology of local authors
