Welcome to the Klamath Writers' Guild website.  Although our site continues to evolve the links to the left are active.  Be sure to check our Calendar for the latest on our 2012 meeting schedule!  Select The Guild to find out about our group, how to become a member or what meetings you can attend as a guest.  When you attend a meeting here is what you'll discover.

Members of the Guild consist of published and unpublished writers who support each other in the craft of writing.  Individuals who are just exploring their desire to write will find guidance and experienced writers will receive the honest critique we all want before sending off our work to an agent or publisher.  This diverse group includes novelists, screenwriters, poets, song writers, journalist, and editors.  From short stories to epic novels the meetings provide opportunities for all genres.  Attend a meeting and you could hear everything from poetry or a musician offering his latest song, to young adult novels, science fiction, fantasy, or real life stories just to name a few of the works being presented for critique at the time of this posting.

Our next Guild meeting is May 14.  See our Calendar link to the left for location and time.

Congratulations to Cheryl Broyles and all of the participants in the Brain Tumor Walk on May 5th, at the Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, CA.  At the time of this posting they've raised over $450,000.00 and counting.

More great news from Cheryl. 

Thank you for posting about the Golden Gate Park brain tumor walk on your web page!  It was a beautiful day with sun and no wind!  Over 400,000 was donated for the event, hoping it goes to find a cure!

My MRI that Friday looked great, no seen tumor and less radiation damage than my doctor expected to see.  And I got more good news!  It is officially OK for me to climb Mt Whitney this summer.  Matt and I already got our permit to climb Mt Whitney on July 3rd.  A great way for me to celebrate surviving the brain cancer 12 years!  HEY - maybe I will be motivated to write another book after climbing another mountain (thoughts are already coming to mind!)  I might be back at your KWG meeting again this fall.
