Paris Writers Workshop

 

20th Annual Paris Writers' Workshop • July 1-11, 2008 • Paris France

The Paris Writers' Workshop (PWW) is organized by WICE, a non-profit organization founded in 1978 that offers innovative, educational courses and programs for the English-speaking community. PWW has established a reputation for providing high-level instruction in a supportive and intimate environment and attracts writers from North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia.

in the expanded PWW program, writers will fine-tune their work under the guidance of distinguished authors who bring to the process a hard practical experience of the craft. In addition, readings, walks around literary Paris and informal evening gatherings will encourage the spirit of creative collaboration which has always been an integral part of the Paris literary experience.
