The West End Writers Workshop (WEWW) meets at Barclay Manor, 1447 Barclay St. in the West End of Vancouver. MAP. PLEASE DO NOT MAIL anything to this address as most communication is done online. Please use the contact form and your message will go to the appropriate board member.

Our meetings are held EVERY Wednesday except in July and August. Meetings start at 7pm and end between 9 - 9:30 pm. Prospective members are welcome to attend three meetings for free. After that, we will request that you pay the membership dues.

Membership to West End Community Center Association (WECCA) is required.
WECCA's Annual Fees are $9. However, if you join WECCA by signing up for a class, you automatically become a lifetime member.

Include session years and your WECCA number in the Subject header, ie, "2010/11#1234"

We welcome all writing types, including - but not limited to - fiction, poetry, screenplays, academic papers, memoirs, news articles, non-fiction, stage plays, etc.
Officially, we are a club but we operate like a workshop. We suggest you bring 8-10 copies of your work, double-spaced, maximum 10 pages. The work is read aloud by you or a proxy. Each attendee will give you short verbal feedback, along with some written notes on your manuscript. Writers are free to use all, some or none of these comments.
