Events & meetings

One big reader event every spring, and monthly meetings the rest of the year — in person around the region or on Zoom when the weather or the calendar says otherwise.

March mini-NaNo, field trips, and local signings

Our March mini-NaNo competition runs every spring with prizes and the kind of accountability that only works when other people can see your word count.

Beyond that, members get information on local author events across Kentucky and Southern Indiana, plus group field trips worth clearing an afternoon for.

Specific dates and registration details go out through the private Facebook group and the members' area.

Sit in on a meeting before you commit to anything. Most people leave with at least one thing they wanted to know and didn't know who to ask.
