Register for the Geneva Writers Conference!

We are happy to support the Geneva Writers Conference, which brings together a supportive community of 150 writers of diverse backgrounds, cultures, languages and countries. Rooted in Geneva’s international character, the GWG supports aspiring, emerging, and established writers at every stage of their creative journey through inclusive programming, collaborative opportunities, and a shared belief in the transformative power of storytelling.

The GWG is run by volunteers and offers, among other opportunities, monthly virtual and in-person writing workshops covering a wide range of genres from September to June, prompt writing, critiquing sessions, contests, book swaps, book clubs, mixers, author Q&As, Agent 1-on-1s, and more.

Every two years they hold the international Geneva Writers Conference. This year is the 14th edition that will take place from the 14th to the 16th of November. Don’t miss the Panel Discussion “Successful Debut Authors: What We Wish We Knew” with Shani Akila, Jo Callaghan and Jason Donald, sponsored by The De Groot Foundation.

You can access the program amd register on the GWG website.
