WGI / #MEACTION NETWORK WORKSHOP
The Writers Guild Initiative is partnering with #MEAction Network to offer creative writing workshops for people with ME (Myalgic encephalomyelitis). The Writers Guild Initiative is an independent non-profit organization affiliated with the Writers Guild of America, East. WGI is dedicated to bringing together professional writers together with vulnerable communities who would benefit from self-expression through creative writing.

No writing experience is required. All participants need to have is a desire to write and explore
their creativity, and a pen and paper. Spelling, grammar and punctuation do not matter—our workshops are an opportunity to explore storytelling in all its forms.

The workshops are fully virtual and pair small groups of participants (4-6) with two writing mentors for three 2 hour sessions of writing exercises. Everything shared in the rooms is completely confidential and all writing done in the workshop belongs exclusively to the participant who wrote it.

We also offer another session, an optional sharing space – this is an opportunity for participants
to share up to 5 minutes of their writing with the full cohort. We can arrange to have work read and/or shared anonymously if participants prefer.

Dates are:

Saturday, June 1, 2024 11AM-1PM, EST

Saturday, June 8, 2024, 11AM-1PM, EST

Saturday, June 15, 2024, 11AM-1PM, EST

What led you to sign up for this workshop? The WGI welcomes all levels of writing experience- no experience is required. But if you have any experience with writing, anything from writing in a diary as a child to a completed manuscript – tell us about it.
Do you have an interest in any particular writing genre? (Memoir, screenwriting, fiction,
personal essay, etc.?) Again, none is required, but if you have a preference, please tell us,
Let us know your access needs, e.g. : needing to take breaks, energy levels, needing to take
breaks in screen time, etc. We will do our best to accommodate you!
