The IWWG, founded in 1976, is a network for the personal and professional empowerment of women through writing and open to all regardless of portfolio. As such, it has established a remarkable record of achievement in the publishing world, as well as in circles where lifelong learning and personal transformation are valued for their own sake. The Guild nurtures and supports holistic thinking by recognizing the logic of the heart--the ability to perceive the subtle interconnections between people, events and emotions- alongside conventional logic.

In 1976, when the Guild was born, there were three major "movements" in society:
-
The Human Potential Movement
-
The New Age with the notion of transformation through spiritual awareness
-
The Women's Movement
The Guild fused these movements under the umbrella of Writing.
-
Through writing, it said, you will access and activate your potential
-
Through writing you will raise your consciousness and experience the transformation of your former self
-
Through writing you will find your voice and become an empowered and authentic woman/person
In addition, the Guild's way became generic. Hence:
-
Accessing human potential without becoming clinical
-
Accessing the spiritual without becoming institutional or a cult
-
Accessing the pro-Women's Movement without becoming politicized.
