Find Your Literary Community
At The Veranda, we believe in coming together to create, share stories, and talk about writing.
Camp NaNoWriMo
Camp NaNoWriMo is an offshoot of National Novel Writing Month in November. In April and July writers can set their own goals and a self paced timeline for their summer writing goals. Join us on The Veranda Facebook group for Camp NaNoWriMo activities. Email us to learn more.
Book Club
Our monthly book club features books written by South Asian women, trans, and non-binary people. Previously featured authors include Alka Joshi, SJ Sindu, Nayomi Munaweera, and Fatima Farheen Mirza among others. Check out our Facebook group or email us to learn more about our book club events.
Screenwriting Group
The Veranda screenwriters are collaborating on a pilot episode for an original South Asian American series. For more information, email verandawriters@gmail.com.
Writing Blitz
The writing blitzes are our way of creating a virtual veranda so that we can hold each other accountable for our writing goals or simply bask in the presence of other writers.
Check out our Facebook group or email us to attend our writing blitzes.
