WE’VE BEEN HERE SINCE 1983
WE’VE BEEN HERE SINCE 1983
In 2023, Carteret Writers will be celebrating forty years of building community among Eastern North Carolina writers and readers. During that time, you’ve put in a lot of miles to attend open mic readings and to connect with fellow storytellers, poets, and literature lovers. You’ve learned to make Zoom work for critique groups when in-person wasn’t possible. When the days seemed darkest, you continued to encourage one another to pursue your writing goals. Through it all, you’ve generously shared your experience, enthusiasm, and expertise to help other writers grow.
Thank you, members, for making us possible.
WE’VE GOT BIG PLANS FOR 2023
Your new board members have high hopes and big ideas for celebrating our upcoming Carteret Writers Quadrennial including:
Workshops, seminars, and a local conference to encourage growth
Social events to cultivate community and connect writers
A new blog to show off our members’ stories and insights
Plus, you’ll still be getting all of the Carteret Writers membership perks you’ve always had including:
