Utah Valley Legends - Jessica Alsop
Hello, everyone!
My name is Jessica Alsop, and I’m the president of the Utah Valley Legends
Chapter of the League of Utah Writers. Our group incorporates primarily writers
in Orem and Provo.
As a group, we write just about everything- fantasy, sci-fi, western, memoir,
romance, adult contemporary, young adult, and many more. We’re always happy
to give feedback at any stage of the writing process! Whether you’re just getting
started or need another set of eyes on your 80 th draft, we’re here to support you
and give constructive feedback. If you want to come just to see how we do things,
feel free to do that, too!
One thing to note, though, is that we don’t allow mentions of graphic violence or
sexual content/assault in the group. We strive to make the group a safe,
constructive environment for everyone, so we don’t allow this type of adult
content.
Our group meets on the first and fourth Wednesdays, as well as the third
Tuesday, of every month. All meetings start at 7. Our first Wednesday meeting is
a hybrid meeting at the Provo Library in room 214, where you can come in person
or meet with us online. That meeting runs until 9, when they kick us out of the
library. Our third Tuesday and fourth Wednesday meetings are held solely online,
and while we typically go from 7 to 9, we can go later if we have more people
who want to share. Feel free to drop in whenever works for you.
And that’s our writing group! We’re a pretty lively bunch who has parties twice a
year and four writing contests.
If you’re interested in joining us, email me at utahvalleylegends@gmail.com. We
look forward to writing with you!
