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 Newsletters

Happening Now
Night of Songs and Stories
Third Mon of the month 5-6:15p 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 and talks about their work, and Stuart Vining provides music that ties it all together. |

Writer's Book Club
The in-person book club for Guild members meets the fourth Tues of the month. For details, click here. 
Novel Writers Discussion Group
Mondays (Every 2 to 3 weeks) 4:00-5:30p Novel: an invented prose narrative that is usually long and complex and deals especially with human experience through a usually connected sequence of events. The group provides an opportunity for writers to share knowledge, ask questions, and offer encouragement.

Writer's Coffee and Chat (Via Zoom)
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. 
The Craft of Narrative Nonfiction
Discussion Group (Via Zoom) Fourth Thursday Each Month 7-8 p.m. Much like a book club, participants meet monthly to discuss a piece of narrative nonfiction with the goal of better understanding the techniques that contribute to success (or don't). For details click here. |
