The Fiction Writing and Editing Organization

Club Description

Hoos Writing is an organization designed to provide a supportive and creative environment for aspiring fiction writers. Our primary focus is to assist members to progress their writing skills and provide a platform for them to showcase their work. Even if you have limited time outside of classwork, or haven't been able to study English during your time at the University of Virginia, we believe that everyone has the potential to write captivating stories that can entertain and inspire others. Our club meetings offer a space for members to share their work, receive constructive feedback, and participate in writing exercises that promote creativity. In addition to fostering a creative environment, Hoos Writing is dedicated to publishing the work of its members. We aim to provide opportunities for writers to have their work read by others, both in our club's semesterly literary magazine and in online forums. This not only gives members a sense of accomplishment and validation but also helps them build their portfolios and gain exposure to a wider audience. Whether you're a seasoned writer or just starting out, Hoos Writing is designed to hone your skills, meet like-minded individuals, and have your work acknowledged and appreciated.
