Welcome to the Central Phoenix writing workshop!
We are the Earthy writer's group. We come from all ages, skills, and walks of life. Nothing is sacred. We admire what each person brings to the table, and polish it with experience and knowledge of our own. We are not a collection of like minded individuals. We are a community of writers, authors, and friends.
Our group is a forum in which you can join fellow writers to discuss writing in all it's forms; from short stories to poems to novels. All skill levels are welcome to join.
If you are looking for feedback, editing, or just a place to share your work, this is a good group to join.
Our main meetings are the weekly meetups at coffee unlimited from 7 to 9 pm. We socialize for a bit, and let any volunteers read their pieces. We discuss each piece round table style after it is read.
Some members meet up at other times to work on specific topics, or just have a bbq or party, and these events are welcome too :)
Most of the events for this group will be in Central Phoenix.
Thanks for joining our group!
We are actively working on finishing our contest and book project judging, but timelines seem to pass quicker than we can achieve them, so I will notify everyone when the winner has been chosen and who will be included in the book.

This is an informal gathering every week that is designed to promote feedback on work, and to highlight the strong parts of one's work as well as ideas to improve weaker portions. Everyone attending is encouraged to bring pieces to read as they are comfortable with. Poems, Essays, and stories are all free game. Generally, anything over 4-6 pages will be read over several sessions. We recommend bringing extra copies if you can. Read more
