About the Club
Riverside Writers was formed in Spotsylvania, Virginia and became a chapter of the Virginia Writers Club, an organization established in 1918. Riverside Writers is one of ten chapters of the VWC.
The club offers workshops, panel discussions, and expert speakers. It currently meets online via Webex from 1 pm to 4 pm on the second Saturday of each month. When in-person meetings resume, we will gather at the Salem Church Library branch of the Central Rappahannock Regional Library system.
