WAG members who wish to read should contact our WAG Digest Editor Wendy Thornton. Please keep in mind that while WAG supports all writing, we’re also a federal and state non-profit — and our events are open to the public. Therefore, Wendy will review your 5-7 minute reading in advance for approval along the criteria of suitability for all ages. Thanks, and we look forward to receiving your reading submissions!

The Writers' Alliance of Gainesville (WAG) promotes encourages and supports aspiring and experienced regional writers. This goal is accomplished via monthly meetings, public readings, small critique groups, a literary journal, and writers' contests and collaborations with schools and civic organizations to foster creative expression through the written word.
