Welcome to WordSmitten Writing Workshops, where professional writers meet other authors, book editors, and literary agents. WordSmitten, established in 1999, will be a 20-year old organization in 2019, with a history of helping writers reach their goals.
Our writing workshops are designed for new and emerging writers. We welcome writers who have a goal of dusting off a manuscript of fiction or non-fiction and with a goal of having a book professionally published.
In these workshops, you’ll work with a critique team, writers like you who rely on your suggestions and responses to improve dialogue, develop better characters, narrate the backstory, the plot and subplot, and to revise the writing.
If you want to discover how to complete your manuscript, write a professional query letter to a literary agent, and learn h0w to work with acquisition editors at major New York book publishing houses, register for the advanced workshops.
Each month, our WordSmitten workshops are held in Tampa Bay at our main office in St. Pete Beach, Florida and in Florida’s North Bend area.
