Because of public concerns over the coronavirus, and out of an abundance of caution for the health of all our members, the GLAWS Advisory Board has canceled the March and April Special Speaker Events, and all meetings of the GLAWS Critique Group Network. This may be extended further, should the health warnings persist. Hoverer, we hope and pray for a return to relative normalcy in the foreseeable future. This is a first for us, and we hope every writer uses the time to improve their work. We will inform members by email as as to future gatherings. Meanwhile, stay safe and keep writing!

An invitation for you and your guests to join other GLAWS writers for a fun, festive party of food, books, entertainment, and the opportunity to socialize with other writers.

This is a pot luck lunch and Open Mic read event. You are also encourage to wear casual festive tropical attire!

GLAWS will have a double booth at this tremendous event that every year sees 125,000-150,000 attendees over two jam-packed days. There are time slots each day where member/authors will be able to promote themselves, sell and autograph books. Authors literally have a seat at the table for the biggest event of its kind on the west coast. Books will also be displayed with author's personal promo stand-up on our bookcases all weekend, regardless of their time slot, and are promoted through the GLAWS website, media, social marketing, and the LA Times.
