General Meetings

TWA General Meetings are held once a month.  Guests are welcome!

Join Our Group

TWA Membership is open to all adults with an interest in the literary world.

Critique Groups

TWA Groups allow you to share your work and receive constructive feedback.

Telling a story is one thing.  It’s another matter to write it, when the written words have to stand alone without the benefit of your gesture, facial expression, tone of voice, volume, eye contact, and feedback.  Knowing how to craft a sentence to manipulate response and amplify meaning is a technical amalgamation of art and science.  Once mastered, it’s the difference between a good piece and a great one.  The technique’s name, “Shimmer,” refers to the transparent layers that create subtle dimension in written work.  This class will have some hands-on exercises for some of the most amazing polishing and editing you’ve ever done, so bring a notebook and pen.


The Presenter

Beverly G. Browning wants to tell you she’s a well-known ghostwriter, but in point of fact, a “well known ghostwriter” is an oxymoron.  Just trust us.  Those who need to know, know her well.  She’s been writing and editing professionally for more than twenty years with more than 100 books notched in her belt. In addition to ghosting and editing, she also has a freelance practice with clients that range from the United States Olympic Committee to Hebraic scholars.  She and her authors have titles with Random House, Rodale, Crown, Tall Oaks Press, Bridge-Logos Publishers, and Zondervan, among other publishers of books and journals.  Although Bev doesn’t yet have a Pulitzer Prize on her mantel, she is one of the only authors in the world to have successfully negotiated a pony into a contract in lieu of full fee.


Special Note

If we have a good turnout on May 2nd, Beverly will come back later to do a workshop on “Writing Humor (Especially When the Topic isn’t Funny)”.
