WELCOME to the Marin Branch of the California Writers Club

The Marin Branch of the California Writers Club meets monthly Sept-June for writing news, networking, encouragement plus a guest presenter. We meet on the 4th Sunday, unless a holiday, 2-4 pm, at Book Passage, Corte Madera. All local writers and guests are welcome.

The California Writers Club is the nation's oldest professional club for writers, founded in 1909 by San Francisco Bay Area writers, including Jack London. We are a nonprofit education corporation with seventeen branches and 1100 members throughout California. Our organization is dedicated to educating writers of all levels and disciplines in the craft of writing and in the marketing of their work. Our branches hold regular meetings with informative speakers and opportunities for networking with fellow writers and publishing industry specialists.

The Marin branch was chartered in 1999 and has been meeting at Book Passage in Corte Madera ever since, drawing writers from all over the Bay Area. Our monthly meetings have featured authors, publishers, agents, lawyers, bloggers, printers, marketers, and other writing professionals. Our local members are all published writers and declare themselves as 1/3 nonfiction, 2/3 fiction. Our branch has a critique group registry and plans several writing outings and informal gatherings during the year. We're here to inspire, inform, encourage, network, and remind you to have fun. Join us and improve your writing and build your career.
