The Virginia Writers Club, founded in 1918, is a statewide association of published professionals:  poets, journalists, historians, essayists, biographers, literary scholars, technical and fiction writers, and other specialists.  Dues are a mere $30 per calendar year.  There are five chapters statewide, where Club members can meet on a regular basis, exchange critiques, praises and network with other writers.

The James-York chapter meets on the third Saturday of every month at the Tabb Library.  Membership consists of adult published and aspiring writers from Hampton, Newport News, Poquoson, York County and nearby communities.  Dues is $12 per year and is used primarily for speaker fees and gifts.

If you know a young person who would like to help organize a chapter of the Young Virginia Writers Club, ask him or her to contact us.
