CPRW
Welcome to the homepage of Central Pennsylvania Romance Writers!
Central Pennsylvania Romance Writers is the local chapter (#77) of Romance
Writers of America. While the romance genre is a focus for many of our members, we meet monthly to hear presentations regarding the craft, research, and business components of all aspects of the publishing industry.
CPRW meets 10:30 am to 12:30 pm on the first Saturday of every month at
Joseph T. Simpson Public Library
16 North Walnut Street
Mechanicsburg, PA 17055
(717) 766-0171
The meeting room is downstairs at the rear of the children’s library. Meetings feature guest speakers, critique sessions, market news and other information!
Interested in joining? Prospective members may attend two meetings before being required to join. At the third meeting, you must join to be allowed to attend any further meetings.

In addition to RWA membership, current CPRW annual membership dues are $28, and includes all of our meetings, a weekly chat session, a monthly newsletter and an annual holiday party.
