About the Club

Established in November 2007, the Northern Virginia Writers Club is an affiliate of the Virginia Writers Club serving aspiring and published authors alike in the northern Virginia region. Meetings are held in person on the third Saturday of each month at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Falls Church along and include a Zoom option for virtual attendance.

The club offers workshops, panel discussions, and expert speakers designed to assist members in the art and craft of writing, as well as to support members with the business side of writing. Club meetings, a collaboration portal, social media, and a members-only Facebook Group offer members the opportunity to exchange ideas and establish contact with other writers having similar interests. We also have critique groups and beta readers. Learn more about membership benefits here.
