Want to try a chapter meeting before you buy? Guests are welcome to attend two meetings
before being asked to join. Membership in Romance
Writers of America is required to be an MCRW member because we are an RWA®-affiliated chapter. Guests are always welcome at MCRW special events and programs,
which will be indicated on the schedule. For specific directions to the meeting place,
email any of MCRW's board members and let us know to
expect you!
