Are you writing a book or thinking about it? Are you published or wanting to publish? This group is for you if you are a writer at heart, regardless of where you are in your writing career and progress. I'm starting this group because I'm writing a non-fiction book, and I want to create a community of writers who will share their work and critique mine and each other's. The format I envision goes something like this: Who ever has material can either read their own out loud to the group or ask so …

Did you know that more than 81% of people say that they'd like to write a book? If you have a book inside of you, what better year than 2012 to write and publish it? I'm the author of a few self published books and am planning to write another in 2012. I've written the others rapidly, and in isolation- but I thought it would be fun to see if I could find other authors or aspiring authors to meet with and talk as I work on this next book. My goal for this group would be to have it be a place wher …

… I searched the library and Amazon for books on brainstrorming and was sorely disappointed - nothing was inspirational. If this group developes and works well, we should write that book! In the meantime, let's help each other spiral upwards in our lives with brainstorming! All are welcome! (The formating of my Word Document below is all wacky and nearly unreadable. But it is reasonably complete, so I have kept it!) PRIMARY BRAINSTORMING GROUP Primary Goal: Ongoing development and use of brainst …

We're currently a small group, but interested in expanding in both numbers and styles. We read and critique each other's work, whether it's fiction, poetry, autobiography or something...completely different. Your submission can be any size and as explicit as you'd like. As the head of the group, I can proudly say that I've completed a novel, including heavy revisions, and very nearly have an agent! So any help you'd like on that front can also be offered. I should have added this part sooner, so …

We are a group of writers who enjoy imaginative, perhaps even offbeat, fiction. Our goal is to write well--or at least better--but with the freedom to make mistakes. We are not here to necessarily produce polished, publishable fiction, but to rather to carve out a space where writers can experiment and have fun in a relaxed and supportive environment. Speculative fiction--which includes science fiction, horror, steampunk, dystopian fiction, and fantasy genres--allows writers of fiction an oppor …

A longing indicates something is missing in our lives.  What is missing is the sound of human voice. The spiritual lure of the Web is the promise of the return of the voice.”   The information explosion bombards and pervades our reality and we are either the casualties or the willing participants.    So we join the millions of Facebo …
