Meeting structure for 2023
Worcester Writers’ Circle is embracing the wonders of technology. As such, all of our meetings are now operating as a Hybrid of Zoom and in-person gatherings. In this way, all of our members can either enjoy the meetings from the comfort of their homes or choose to meet face-to-face.
