Virtual Writer’s Groups

Women At Woodstock Hosts 4 Writer’s Groups Online Throughout the Year:

Memoir/Nonfiction Colony I meets every 3rd Wednesday, 1-3 pacific, 4-6 eastern
Memoir/Nonfiction Colony II meets every 3rd Friday, 1-3 pacific, 4-6 eastern

Our Writers’ Colonies are for writers working on something big, like a novel, memoir, or collection of stories – or writers determined to start and finish a large project during the year. We will set our intentions at the first session, write between every session, and bring our new writing up to 8-pages (1,200-words) to workshop at each meeting. You’ll read your work aloud and receive feedback from your fellow writers to help you edit and polish your work. Led by Women At Woodstock founder Ann Voorhees Baker.

The Writer’s Dissection Lab Workshop

Every 3 Weeks on Mondays, 1-3 pacific, 4-6 eastern

Led by Women At Woodstock founder & producer Ann Voorhees Baker, Our focus will be down to the nitty gritty. Each session we’ll do a close-up, pull-part-and-analyze examination of a story recently published in a highly ranked literary journal or magazine. In our group dissection, we’ll pinpoint what makes the writing so good, so riveting, so affecting; what tricks the writer employs, what surprise or unusual use of language or story arc or world-building is used—and then we’ll try our hand at creating a new piece of compelling writing of our own, using a method, system, or technique we just uncovered. We’re going to open our eyes to things we weren’t seeing before, and elevate our writing with new and innovative tools in our writer’s arsenal. Our goal will be to write better, plain and simple. 
> First session Monday, January 19, 2026
