The Orlando Renaissance Writers’ Guild<br />
Mission:<br />
To act as a support group of aspiring as well as published authors.<br />
Goal:<br />
To encourage, inspire and motivate individuals to write about themselves, their community<br />
and heritage and subjects that stimulate a desire to write. It is also our goal to<br />
increase the number and visibility of black published authors in the local, national and<br />
global arena by sharing information on publishing, establishing copyrights, editing and<br />
marketing services.<br />

History:<br />
In April 2002, Ted Hollins encourage a group of friends – lovers of the written word –<br />
who had a desire to put pen to paper to come together to discuss their desire to become<br />
published authors. During subsequent gatherings they shared their writings with each<br />
other and as word of mouth spread the group expanded. Thus, The Orlando Renaissance<br />
Writers Guild was born! Meetings are held once a month and are hosted by<br />
various businesses throughout the Orlando area.
