Welcome

Welcome to the Greater Vancouver Chapter (GVC) of Romance Writers of America®. We are a network of romance writers who strive to support and encourage each other through all stages of our writing careers. Our members range from beginners working on their first manuscript to published authors working on their 30th book. We publish a monthly newsletter, sponsor writing contests, arrange regular Writing Week Challenges, and hold workshops and seminars to promote the craft of writing. We also meet once a month to exchange news and hear guest speakers. Ready to join our group?

Please take a few minutes to look around our website. Find out information on who our members are and how you can become a member of GVC, too. New members are always welcome! Discover what our published authors have written. Read about our monthly meetings, writing events in our area, and our members' news items. Learn about our monthly newsletter, Spotlight, and read selected articles from our archives. You can also visit some of our favourite links or browse through our library.

UPCOMING MEETING

Our next meeting will be held on June 20, 2009, in our temporary meeting location of Burnaby United, 7591 Gray Avenue, Burnaby. Find out more.

PHOTOS


GVC authors Mary J. Forbes, Susan Lyons, and Kate Austin went to Seattle for the Librarian Meet and Greet in October 2006.

Most years we organize and host a writing conference with a big-name speaker and appointments with editors. Check out the photos from our May 2008 conference, Write On Vancouver, which was a huge success. Our next conference is planned for spring 2010.

Every February we hold a Valentine's brunch. Browse through some snapshots of the 2007 event.

Just before Valentine's Day of 2009, we held a free event at the Vancouver Public Library. Check out these photos.

Each summer we hold a picnic, rain our shine. Check out the photos from our 2008 picnic.
