The Hawkes Bay branch of NZ Christian Writers is an inter-denominational group meeting to share ideas and enthusiasm for writing and to encourage and affirm each other as Christians who are writers.
Members write in a variety of genres, for both Christian and secular markets, and for church, family, and friends. Meetings are informal with a flexible format, which usually includes reporting on individual writing projects, discovering writing tips, and sharing set assignment pieces. Doing the assignments is optional, challenging, and designed to help us grow as writers. At present, the group meets 6 times per year in Hastings.
We encourage members to join the NZ Christian Writers national organisation, but whether you write for publication or for enjoyment, all Christian writers will receive a warm welcome at our meetings.
We welcome new writers to join us and get involved in helping each other develop their writing skills and spreading the good news of the salvation Jesus has given us.
