Naples Writers' Workshop

The Naples Writers’ Workshop seeks to cultivate the literary arts by working with writers to develop their craft and by broadening opportunities for literary culture.

We run an informal and supportive short-fiction workshop that meets every other week in Naples, FL where local writers share their writing. In addition, our year-long, paid Novel Workshop and Novel Mentorships begin in September. We’ll work with writers to finish their novel manuscripts and offer feedback and advice along the way.


The Naples Writers’ Workshop produces a podcast called Why Is This Good? where we feature successful stories and discuss literary craft and lessons we can learn.


We host a local reading series, Words and Wine, where you can hear local and invited writers read from their latest stories. Sign up to our Newsletter or join our Facebook group to be notified about upcoming events.


Our growing private Facebook group offers writers a place to gather digitally each day for writing tips, industry news and great fiction. Join the community to meet other writers both in Naples and beyond.
