Writers Read

Book Club

You’re a writer—of course you read books! But are you reading closely and using them to learn more about writing craft to enhance your own writing? Our upcoming Writers Read Book Club hosted by Eric Boyd has you covered. 

Launching later in 2024, potentially in September, this in-person book club + craft talk series will help you dig deeper into the chosen books to pull out examples of actionable writing tips in a friendly, comfortable group setting.

Participants will have the opportunity to:

  • Read noted books in various genres

  • Participate in group discussions focused on writing craft

  • Engage in exercises to put craft tips to immediate use

Participants will need to:

  • Register for the event so we can plan for space

  • Read or listen to the book at your own expense

  • Join the group in-person at the selected venue

Host Eric Boyd will lead group discussion on interiority, building tension, motifs, and prose style.

Hint: While awesome, the Netflix version is FAR different than the original 1959 Gothic horror book. Grab the classic, please!

Meet our first Writers Read Book Club book:

The Haunting of Hill House,
by Shirley Jackson.
