SWC is planning:

  • celebrations and readings
  • a “retreat” for members to share, teach, learn and connect
  • more meet and greets
  • a tenth anthology with an expanded student writing contest
  • launches & readings
  • summer markets (for sales, connections and advocacy)
  • things we haven’t imagined yet 🙂
