Are you a writer? Got some WACKY ideas? Let's get together, share our work, offer constructive criticisms, tips and techniques.
I used to be a newspaper reporter, have had some poetry published. I teach ESL, art, and writing, and would like to meet with other people interested in creative writing with a TWIST - let's leave the Dear Diary and Bodice Ripper stories at home! Bring any sci-fi, (CLEAN) fantasy, humour, or other "wacky" stuff you've written. Actually, our members write everything from wacky stuff (me, mostly! LOL!) to mystery, to autobiography, to screenplays & poetry. Check us out!
We could meet over dinner, or coffee, or drinks.
What do you think? Frequency, day & times are suggestions only. We'll figure it out as we go along!

Wow, December already!!! Anyway, sorry it's 4 weeks instead of 3, but my son is visiting from Phoenix, and I only get to see him twice a year.
As usual, new writers are welcome, and can just sit and listen the first time to see if we are the right group for you. I have always found the suggestions and comments of the group to be both insightful and helpful, and hope you do, too. Read more

“I'm finding it difficult to stay disciplined on my own. Maybe some structure or just camaraderie with fellow writers will help me remain focused. I'm also open to the idea of collaboration, if I can find the right person.”
