Since 1984, the Monadnock Writers’ Group has provided community, inspiration, and support to the writers of the Monadnock region. All are welcome to their public meetings.
Monadnock Writers' Group typically meet on the third Saturday morning of each month, September through June, at the Peterborough Town Library, unless otherwise noted. Monthly meetings start at 9:45 a.m. and go to about 11:30 a.m, but times can vary.
