Writers on the Plains is a two-year visiting writers program that will celebrate the land and literature of the plains region of Northeastern Colorado. It partners Colorado State University with Colorado communities and visiting authors in a series of readings, book discussions, writing workshops and publication of an anthology of participants' work, with the goal of inspiring residents to read, write, and talk about their land and their lives.

This Yahoo! group is for a general discussion of the project by the writing groups from any of the participating counties. Local writing groups can post their finished efforts and share thoughts and tips about their writing group process. Future writing groups can use this information for planning and setting up their groups.

For other project groups, see the Writers on the Plains site.
