The Northwest Arkansas Writers Workshop is a group of people who enjoy
writing for fun and profit. Our members come from many different walks
of life and present a varied set of views on the world and everything
in it.
This variety is evidenced by the stories that are shared within the workshops themselves. We are delighted by the characters we meet, as we hear them come to life. If you would like a little more delight in your life, may we suggest you contact one of our members? The characters they create may be exactly what you've been looking for. Just click on the Members button to the left to begin your journey. We hope it will be as much fun for you as it is for us! |
