Who is Word Weavers?

Word Weavers is a writer’s critique group that began in Orlando, Florida, in 1997 and has since grown to include other cities in Florida as well as New York and North Carolina. Beginning each meeting with prayer, Word Weavers gives writers the opportunity to share their work and help fellow writers in a small group setting. They are known for helping emerging writers and published authors to hone their skills and encourage each other to become the writers God created them to be.
