Do you have voices inside your head that won't leave you alone until you get their story down on paper? Good news – you're a writer. Bad news – it's not as easy to get it down on paper as it sounds. Get together with other writers to discuss story structure, marketing your work, publishers, agents, brainstorming. We will even have the occasional critique. Novels, short stories, screenplays, poems – in all genres are welcome.

Discussion will be focused to the needs of writers aiming for publication. Any critiques will be aimed to help the writer improve their craft in order to get published. If you aren't willing to kill your darlings for the good of the piece this probably isn't the writing group for you.

The gender bender exercise! Below I have posted a link to an article. Use the article for inspiration for a 3 - 5 page scene. It can be a scene of anything. A short story, a novel, a novella. The catch: write it in first person, and from the opposite gender. Guys write first person female, ladies write first person male. Read more

      “Imagination is a tactic of survival. I have a lot of ideas swarming around in my head, I need some better structure though. I am expecting this writing group to expand my mind and help me on my path.”

      “I like creating fantastical universes, but that said, I also like recreating the world as I see it. I know what this process is like for me, I'd like to see what it's like for everyone else.”

      “Writing fiction has always been a hobby of mine and I was a small-town newspaper reporter for a few years. I just moved to Guelph from Prince Edward Island, happened upon this web site, noticed a meeting coming up soon and decided it was serendipity.”
