About Texas Writes

Texas Writes

The Texas Writes program brings free half-day writing workshops for adult writers to small community libraries across the state.

The program includes:

  • Two craft of writing presentations
  • A moderated conversation on the writing process and the publishing side
  • Plenty of time for questions
  • PLUS refreshments (all at no cost to the library or attendees).

Supported by a grant from the Tocker Foundation, Texas Writes launched in 2013 with five visits to libraries in Central Texas. Nearly a decade later, the program has hosted more than 90 visits and reached countless writers across the state.

If you’re a library director interested in requesting a visit, or if you’re a published author interested in presenting with the Texas Writes program, please click on the appropriate application button below to submit your request, or email Becka Oliver at becka@writersleague.org for more information.
