We mentor our members
to success...

We are a non-profit group of 120+ romance and multi-genre writers affiliated with the national organization, Romance Writers of America®. Phoenix Desert Rose encourages its members through each stage of their writing career, from first manuscripts to becoming New York Times best sellers. Guests are welcome to attend up to two meetings.

We hold monthly meetings, offer informative monthly newsletters, and work with our sister chapter, Valley of the Sun RWA® to bring events to readers and writers. Each year, we sponsor the internationally recognized Golden Quill Contest for published authors. Every other year we host one of RWA®'s biggest regional conferences, Desert Dreams and sponsor the Realizing The Dream Writing Contest.
