In an effort to motivate, inspire, and promote camaraderie within the writing community, the Richmond Hill Historical Society invites Richmond Hill and Savannah area writers to join the Historical Writers Guild of Richmond Hill which meets three Monday evenings per month.

The HWG offers a variety of programs for both published and non-published writers to promote their historical fiction and creative non-fiction.  All compatible and cross-genre works to historical writing are welcome.  HWG is also open to hobbyist writers to enjoy a relaxed and fun environment.
