Write Your Story Workshop
On September 25, 2025, members of the Military Writers Society of America (MWSA) will host a free Write Your Story workshop for local military, veterans, and their families in Kansas City, MO. This workshop is geared to storytelling, whether attendees may be working on a novel, a memoir, a short story, a poem, or an article, both fiction and nonfiction.
MWSA will hold the event at the Westin Kansas City Crown Center, Washington Park 1, 1 East Pershing Road, Kansas City, MO. It will take place from 9:30 AM – 3:30 PM.
Award-winning writers from MWSA have conducted these veteran-focused workshops coast-to-coast since 2015. When asked at last year’s event, “What was the most valuable part of the workshop?” attendees said:
o Each one was important
o All of it, since I’m not a writer but would like to be
o All valuable!
o Meeting other veteran writers
o Being with other writers
o Exercises
o Story arc
This event is geared toward newer writers who want to tell their stories and may not know where to begin, but the sessions have also proven beneficial for more seasoned writers who share in the camaraderie with other veterans and families. Please email writeyourstory@mwsa.co if interested. Registration is required by Sep. 15, and MWSA will provide a free lunch to all attendees. MWSA hopes you will join this event to help tell your story.
