Indiana Writers Center

Writing classes and workshops are the core offerings, taught by published writers to support creative expression and strengthen communication skills. Programs serve writers of all ages and backgrounds, including people whose voices are rarely heard. Members can connect with other writers and take part in critique groups for feedback in small-group settings; special-interest groups are also available. The center offers INWords, a publishing initiative featuring original work generated through its programs, and Flying Island, an online literary journal that accepts submissions from Indiana residents and people with significant ties to the state. The Indiana Playwrights Circle offers opportunities such as scene nights and table reads, though it is currently on hiatus. Based in Indianapolis, the center supports a community of writers from beginners to professional authors.
