Special Speaker Events (SSE) of the Greater Los Angeles Writers Society offer a wealth of
educators, nationally-known authorities, industry experts, agents, publishers and famous authors.
It is a terrific opportunity to learn about the craft and business of writing from the best
voices of the day. While we sometimes focus on specific genres, most topics are broad-based
and provide valuable information for all writers.
GLAWS
welcomes writers of all genres and levels of expertise. We also welcome those who support the
writing community whether you're an industry professional or fan of writing. Admission at the
library is always free. We request you register/check-in at the door to receive
a name badge. RSVP for preferred seating.
