About Us

Women Writing in Asheville--a.k.a. WWIA--was started by Jess Jacob in 2008 to provide women writers with a place to share their writing and meet other writers in Asheville. Our members are of diverse ages, backgrounds, and genres. The common thread is that we all love to write!

We meet for kind but honest feedback of our writing. Everyone who's shared has commented on how helpful the critiques have been in making their pieces stronger.

Meetings are scheduled twice a month to accommodate as many schedules as possible.

For more information, please email jess@womenwritinginasheville.org.

We hope to see you at a workshop soon!

Why Request a Forum Login?

We have spent three years building our community and network of women writers in Asheville. Our forums are meant to be an online extension of our critique workshops, with the goal being to allow greater depth of critique.

There is an element of trust built with face-to-face critiques that isn't the same with people you've only "met" online. Therefore, I am limiting online participation to active WWIA critique workshop participants.

Fill out the form at http://womenwritinginasheville.org/?q=content/request-forum-login. You will receive an email when your account has been created. Click the link in the email to get started!

If your request for a forum login is denied the first time, please don't take it personally. Just start coming to the critique workshops so we can get to know you and your writing. We so would love to have you be part of our group! Check the calendar to the right or using the links at the top of this page to find out when and where our next ones are taking place!
