Central Florida Writers and Publishers Guild

About us

The founding members had the 1st Literacy Benefit Banquet in 2008, and for the next several years, the Guild honored Author-of-the-Year, Ghostwriter-of-the-Year, Publisher-of-the-Year, and more.

In 2018, it became the The Central Florida Writers and Publishers Guild (CFWPG)

when it received non-profit status. The mission has always been to nurture literary

artists in preparation for writing, editing, publishing, and marketing their works.

In 2022, CFWPG received grant funds for a Young Writers Project, where Guild

mentors helped three Central Florida high school students to write and publish and sell their books.

Vision:

To provide real and virtual forums where literary artists can both showcase their talents and glean information from others as they perfect their craft.

Mission:

To lead, inspire, and support writers, poets, and aspiring and published

authors to bring forth their messages to public audiences can both showcase their talents and glean information from others as they perfect their craft.

- To add a Young Literary Artists component to CFWPG, where adult members

mentor young persons who aspire to become creative writers and published

authors.
