For years, our annual Writers’ Roundtable has been among the organization’s most popular programs for members and non-members alike. And with very good reason. Where else can you learn so much so quickly from other writers about topics of interest to us all? In any Writers’ Roundtable, those issues may range from getting paid more promptly to obtaining and keeping clients to how much to charge and much more.

The meeting room is divided into small groups or, depending on number of attendees, gather group therapy-like into one large circle. Anyone and everyone can talk about whatever's on their mind -- as it relates to their freelance writing business. There’s no better way to learn from fellow IWOCans than in this brisk and lively hour-long session.

Networking, with snacks and beverages, begins at 5:00 p.m., followed by the program at 6:00 p.m.

The meeting is free for IWOC members. Non-members pay $10 with online preregistration/payment or $15 at the door.
