Cultivating literary excellence since 1993, The Long Island Writers’ Guild continues to be dedicated to the development of each writer’s voice and talent, and to the collection of literary treasures in anthologies.

In free, informal workshops, The Long Island Writers’ Guild members guide and encourage each other to develop stylistically, in a supportive and educational environment.  Each workshop offers writers the chance to learn writing strategies and tricks, to dabble with inventive writing exercises, to present their works-in-progress, and most importantly, to have fun.

Diversity is not only encouraged, it is the pride of The Long Island Writers’ Guild.  Members have included: book and magazine authors, columnists, New York City Playwrights, historical non-fiction writers, as well as two Fulbright scholars, international writers, non-published writers and people who love to play with words.

The Long Island Writers’ Guild meets twice a month at the Bethpage and Levittown Libraries. All writing workshops are free, and open to the public. Please see our Calendar of Events for upcoming dates and locations.
