Pikes Peak Writers

Pikes Peak Writers began in 1993 as the Pikes Peak Writers Conference, founded by author Jimmie H. Butler. The inaugural conference centered on "Useful Tips for Writing Commercial Fiction," and enjoyed sponsorship by the Friends of the Pikes Peak Library District and The Kennedy Center Imagination Celebration. After several years of successful conferences, the core group of volunteers formed Pikes Peak Writers in 2002 as a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, dedicated to providing quality education for writers year-round. Held annually in Colorado Springs, Colorado, the conference is in its 21st year and is considered one of the top ten writers conferences by Writers Digest Magazine. Non-conference events have expanded to include year around programming with free and low-cost events, including monthly Write Brain sessions, periodic writing workshops, and a host of other fun and educational meetings and events. With over 500 members from around the world, PPW is FREE to join! Visit our website to learn more. http://www.pikespeakwriters.com
