For Writers with Special Needs 

The North Carolina Writers’ Network strives to make our programs and services accessible to all writers, including those with special needs. If you have any mobility issues or require an ADA-accessible room, please include your requirements on your registration form. 

Registrant Directory 

The registration form for the 2023 Squire Workshops will ask registrants if they want to opt-in to a Registrant Directory. This directory will include first and last names and email addresses for all registrants who choose to be included, and will be shared with only those registrants after the conference.

Joining the Registrant Directory is not required, and the Network will not share the directory with those who do not choose to join.
