Join us for a good old-fashioned Parisian salon…in Jersey City!
Once a month we gather to do a deep dive into a famous, not-so-famous, or even notorious short work of fiction. Our salon is a guided discussion intended to deepen our collective understanding of effective storytelling.
**What you need to know:**
* All short pieces for the salon are published pieces. Unpublished works are for JCW workshops. * Please read the story before the salon! **We will NOT be reading it out loud.** * We will NOT be providing printouts. Feel free to bring your own. * Wine and beer only. Please no spirits. * We would love a donation but it’s not mandatory to attend. * All writers are welcome. All writers are to be respected. Be kind.
**Monthly Schedule for Tuesday:**
* **1st Tuesday of the Month: JCW Short Story Salon**
We give the salon treatment to a famous, not-so-famous, or even notorious short work of fiction every month.
* **2nd Tuesday of the Month:** **Roundtable Workshop**
Constructive criticism of unpublished work from JCW members. MUST SUBMIT IN ADVANCE.
* **3rd Tuesday of the Mont**h: **Trope or Choke.**
Constrained writing at its quirkiest.

*JCW follows current CDC COVID-19 mandates. Until further guidelines are announced, proof of vaccination and masks are not required for in person workshops. We do ask, however, that you respect your fellow writers by staying home when you are feeling unwell.*
