Events for 2026
are in the planning stages
The Board of Directors has convened and is actively discussing the future direction of the Skagit Valley Writers League for 2026. We continue to have concerns around member engagement, addressing the needs of our writing community, and navigating the challenges posed by a lack of volunteers in leadership positions. I encourage you to contact me via email at skagitwriter@gmail.com with your suggestions, your interest in taking on a leadership role, and any program ideas that could unite us as engaged writing members. I eagerly await your response.
In the meantime, I have reached out to several potential speakers and workshop leaders and am trying to fill our calendar with wonderful apportunities to learn. Stay tuned.
