The Rehoboth Beach Writers Guild is founded on the belief that the writing—and sharing—of our stories matters. We are enormously proud of our many published writers, but publication isn’t our ultimate goal. What matters is the telling of the story, whether that happens while sitting around a table at a FreeWrite!, standing before an audience at one of our monthly readings, sharing drafts of one’s writing in a workshop—or publishing. Regardless of a writer’s genre or skill level, the Rehoboth Beach Writers Guild offers education, encouragement and above all, a nurturing community of people who care about–and value–words.

--Maribeth Fischer, Founder and Executive Director

Happening Now

FreeWrites
Four in-person weekly. See our FreeWrites page for details.

Night of Songs and Stories
Third Tue of the month
7-8:15p
Join us monthly for a Night of Songs and Stories. The evening features original readings (300 words or fewer) by Guild members and music by local musicians Stuart Vining & Amy Felker.
Each month a theme is posted and both the writers and musicians write/perform pieces that in some way connect to this theme.

Art in the A.M.
Second Wed of the month 10-11:15a
Art in the A.M. is a monthly show featuring artwork, readings and music. Each month we post pictures of three pieces by local artists. Writers choose one piece that inspires them to write 300 words or less. On the day of the event, writers read their pieces, the artist displays their work and briefly discusses, and Stuart Vining provides music that ties it all together.

Writer's Book Club
The in-person book club is back. For details, click here.

Writer's Coffee and Chat
Every Wed 4p
Writing can be lonely. Sometimes we need to be with other writers to talk—or to listen to ideas related to writing—in a casual, free-style discussion.
Go to Writer's Coffee and Chat for details.
