First formed in 1949, Southwest Manuscripters is the longest active organization of writers west of the Rockies, and our goal is to nurture up-and-coming writers, with the goal of getting them published.

Please join us for our monthly meetings, typically held on the third Monday of the month in the Community Room of the Peninsula Center Library. Guests are always welcome. Each meeting features a guest speaker who is a professional writer or an executive in the publishing industry.

For the month of March, we welcome accomplished novelist, screenwriter, musician, and businessman Stephen Smoke. He is the author of 17 novels, including Black Butterfly, Pacific Coast Highway, and Pacific Blues, under his own and other names. He has also written several non-fiction books, including the popular Bill of Responsibilities series and the recent Palos Verdes Peninsula Artists book. Mr. Smoke has written and directed feature films, including Street Crimes (starring Dennis Farina) and Final Impact and has written screenplays for others, including Magic Kid.
