The group was founded in 1984 by Monika Rose, called Writers Unlimited, and members published five Manzanita poetry and prose book collections and three additional The Journal volumes under the name of Writers Unlimited.  Since then, the Wine, Cheese, and Chocolate collection, Out of the Fire, and Voices of Wisdom anthologies have been published, thanks to generous grants from the Calaveras Community Foundation for Voices of Wisdom publications and California Humanities for classes and for publications.

With the formation of Manzanita Writers Press in 2009, the Manzanita series and other books by authors in our region and in California, mainly, are now published by MWP, Manzanita Writers Press, a non-profit 501(c)(3) arts organization. We offer supportive and close editing and publishing services for local and regional authors.
