Fiction Writers Philadelphia

Write for fun and friendship. Talk about big ideas, and talk about characters like they're real people. Build awe-inspiring universes and/or craft implausibly hot scenarios. Wrestle with how to get your thoughts, feelings, and fantasies on paper.

This meetup is for dreamers, planners, and writers of science fiction, fantasy, horror, romance, erotica, fan fiction, tv series and movie scripts, speculative fiction in general, literary fiction, and combinations thereof. The plan is to mostly just hang out, but people can certainly share their writing in a supportive and safe environment if they would like.

Whether you post anonymously on the web, are tenaciously writing for publication, or have published (or all three), you are welcome here on equal footing. The important thing is that you like to share inner worlds through talking and writing.

"Hi. I usually write short personal essays but I'm venturing into longer fiction. I'm okay at character development but dialogue is something I need to work on. Ditto on plot."

"On hiatus from academia for the moment, I use reading and writing to keep my mind sharp while I work in the Philadelphia service industry. I've been working on a prospective novel since 2008, and I'm tired of telling people I'm working on it."
