Austin Writers is a meant as a source of positive reinforcement and community for writers of all kinds in the Austin area. During a regular month, we have 2 meetups; a mid-month Write-In, where we come ready to simply be in one place and write in the company of others; and an end of the month Sharing & Discussion, where people bring examples of their current writing for sharing and to spark discussion.
The goal is simply to help foster a community of writers in Austin, and provide continuity to keep us writing as we go through daily life. It is not a heavy-duty workshop type thing. Absolutely all writing styles and approaches are welcomed; fiction, non-fiction, journaling, experimental.
Requested Donation to cover fees: $3 per Meetup. Thanks for helping us thrive!
Please Note! Austin Writers Meetup focuses on Austin and the central urban area. There is also a Round Rock Writers Group, run by different folks:

This workshop will focus on a concrete technique for moving beyond writer's block, and will teach a valuable method of brainstorming and idea formulation at the same time.
Wordgardens for Writers Block is a standalone, repeatable workshop which demonstrates a method of collaborating with another writer to yield evocative and flexible words, and then for using those words to guide writing exercises. Read more
