Mission Statement: CWC-SFV

CWC is about discovery and transformation, about giving voice to those who’ve been silenced. Our members discover how to improve their writing skills, to advance communication, and to become more actualized. Our goal is to transform into a community that is truly listened to, not simply heard. Our hope is to transform from simple agreement to genuine understanding. We strive to transform from isolation to kinship.
 
Our membership is diverse. Some are poets, essayists, journalists, screenwriters, and writers across genre. Some are professionals, some are students. Many of our members once sacrificed their artistic dreams to help support their families, to become mothers and wives and teach English to our children. All of our members, developing or advanced, share the spirit of artistic adventure.
 
Learning to write well is a great catharsis. It’s better than confession and cheaper than psychoanalysis. And California Writers Club reaches out to all who revere the written word. Our meetings provide a protective umbrella for the emulation and growth of authorial talent. We provide skilled professional speakers, an opportunity to safely critique our writerly works, and the occasion to make new friends, to socialize and to network in a literary setting. CWC welcomes you to share in transformation. ◊◊◊
