Central Indiana Writers’ Association, a not-for-profit organization founded in 1976, is a community of novelists, poets, and essayists writing in all genres. We come together once a month and provide our members with a host of different activities and support. Everyone is welcome!
And while CIWA encourages every writer to continue writing, we do not support any form of pornography, erotica, or BDSM writing. There are writing groups for those genres elsewhere.
Attention: the new email for Central Indiana Writers’ Association is centralindianawriters1976@gmail.com
Central Indiana Writers’ Association Zoom Meeting – March 16, 2026
7:00-8:30 P.M.(EST)
Story Structure
With Speaker Chris Clouser
“What do you think of when you hear about story structure?
Almost everyone thinks of plot points and formulas like the Hero’s Journey or Save the Cat.
What if I were to say there is more to it than just what beat you hit at a certain spot in your story? We will look at what other elements the writer can use to help structure their story beyond just a set of prescribed milestones. Join me as we discuss Structure in Storytelling — the writer’s secret superpower.” —Christopher Clouser
