Palo Alto Public Library Events
Hosted by Cynthia McCarthy, Writers Helping Writers is offered jointly by CWC's San Francisco Peninsula branch and the Palo Alto Public Library.
Please join us the third Thursday of the month (except June, July, August, and December) at 6:30 pm. Meetings are in-person only.
To hear about other writing programs, subscribe to the library newsletter here.
Each month, CWC SF Peninsula branch members share learned techniques and experiences in our craft. From scoping out your memoir to finding inspiration for a poem to plotting your novel to learning the ins and outs of blogging—we teach what we’ve learned. This is an opportunity for all writers to meet and share their experiences.
Our purpose? To pass on what we’ve discovered to help other writers.
Anyone can attend, free of charge.
