“Listen, if you want to write about all sweetness and light and that stuff, go get a job at Hallmark.”
[Harry Crews]

Since 1998 the independent, non-profit BCWW in historic Bucks County, PA, has advanced the power of the written word in fiction, memoir, and creative non-fiction in a friendly, supportive atmosphere. It does not work with poetry. The BCWW's only aim is to critique members' writing with the goal of publication. Membership -- for adults only -- is limited by design.
Newcomers with a serious writing interest and background are welcome as space permits.
There are no dues or membership fees.
The workshop may not be right for every aspiring writer, but if interested in becoming a member please email Don Swaim, sharing your background and experience.

Covid-19-The Pandemic Project
Stories by Members of the BCWW
Because of the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic, members of the venerable Bucks County Writers Workshop began staging virtual meetings on Zoom once a week with mixed results and sometimes hilarious technical complications. The result is an original ebook containing humor, journal-like narratives, fiction, essays, poetry, scathing satire, and occasionally a piece of creative work that is essentially undefinable, not to mention a story seen from the perspective of the virus itself. An ebook.
