The Published Writers Club of Rossmoor (PWR) was established in 2012 to support published and aspiring writers by promoting and publicizing their work. Membership is open to residents of Rossmoor and to a small percentage (10%) of non-residents. Annual dues are $30, payable to PWR. Meetings are held on the first Saturday of each month, at 10 am, in the Fairway Room in the Creekside building. For more information, contact the president, Dick Friedman at dick.friedman24@gmail.com .

The Published Writers of Rossmoor offers the companionship of like-minded individuals, and welcomes both aspiring and published writers: anyone interested in learning more about writing. Our community is here to help you grow as a writer and provide advice on publishing and promoting your work: from workshops to critique groups, we’re here to help you grow as a writer.
