Sponsors Invitation

The South Carolina Writers Workshop is a statewide nonprofit (501-c-3) organization dedicated to serving aspiring and established writers. Our mission is to provide opportunities for writers at all levels to grow in their craft and to learn about the publishing industry.

To keep membership dues and registration fees affordable for as many participants as possible, our organization is funded in part by the South Carolina Arts Commission, corporate grants and sponsorships, merchandise sales, and through the generosity of individuals like you who care about reading and books, and who want to be a part of bringing a talented and diverse group of poets, writers, editors and agents to South Carolina for an entire weekend.
