All Writers WELCOME

​We were founded in 1981 and our only purpose is to get our members to write -- write better and write more. Sponsored by the Downers Grove Friends of the Library, we have poets, novelists, essayists and short story writers who attend our meetings with the aim of becoming better writers and helping other members develop their skills. Our members’ experience ranges from “just beginning” to published novelists.
​
​“All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you: the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was. If you can get so that you can give that to people, then you are a writer.” 
― Ernest Hemingway

"Any man who keeps working is not a failure. He may not be a great writer, but if he applies the old-fashioned virtues of hard, constant labor, he'll eventually make some kind of career for himself as writer."
- Ray Bradbury

​​"There are two kinds of writer: those that make you think, and those that make you wonder."
