The International Women's Writing Guild

The Guild was founded in 1976. As a women’s writing guild, we are culturally diverse. From the beginning, we’ve represented women from many backgrounds. We wanted to make a place where all women writers feel welcome, inspired, and empowered by skills, resources, and mentoring.

Now, after 40 years of enriching women writers’ lives, we are still growing and changing with the times. We’re committed to empowering women writers with innovative and diverse professional resources, mentoring, and support.We have a robust membership, a membership publication, a signature summer conference, and a dynamic and growing list of established regional conferences.
