Meet other local Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers! Gather to network, exchange ideas, and socialize with others who are interested in writing about Sci-fi, fantasy, and other types of speculative fiction (SF)!
- Have your writing critiqued in a positive, supportive atmosphere.
- Get answers to your burning questions about writing.
- Share your own knowledge and insight with other aspiring writers.
- Guest speakers some months, including novelists and editors!
You can bring a work you want critiqued (such as a short story, novel chapter, synopsis, query letter, outline, or anything SF related). However, don't feel compelled to bring a story if you don't have one finished, as this is more than just a critique group.
We will also discuss the joys, triumphs, and just plain FUN of writing SF, as well as its occasional trials and tribulations. You can talk about favorite authors, characters (yours, or another author's), SF books, series, magazines, or even movies.
If you have burning questions about writing, or amazing insights about writing to share with other aspiring SF writers, bring those too! We want to know what works for you, what makes you more creative and productive, and share what can help us get published!

“It is always nice to turn this solitary hobby into something a bit less antisocial. Besides sometimes you just need another person to bounce ideas off of.”

“I'm a fantasy author who's published one novel through a small publisher and am trying to publish more (about eight more full-length drafts). I'm also considering going the old-fashioned route of publishing short stories to achieve this.”
