Fort Bend Writers Guild is an active Houston,
Texas area writers group. Weekly meetings are held every Monday at
Barnes & Noble Sugar Land from 7 to 9 p.m. Visitors are welcome
on a one-time basis. After that, membership
is required.
Our weekly critique
meetings are devoted to helping each other polish
manuscripts for publication. Our members are writing what is best
described as "mass market" and "genre" novels,
including mystery, romance, historical, women's interests, sci-fi,
young adult, and children's stories. Almost all genre are welcome.
In addition to weekly meetings, Fort Bend Writers
Guild sponsors writers workshops and
writing competitions. We
also usually have a Christmas season social gathering for members
and their significant others.
