What we’re about
This group is an off-shoot of the popular Los Feliz Writers Block. It's for anyone who is serious about writing -- short story, long story, any story at all, poetry, memoir, post-its -- but needs a kick in the pants or a little peer pressure from other writers to sit down and do it. Think of the group as your gym buddy. We will get together ON ZOOM and WRITE for two hours every Saturday morning.
PS Due to the group's large membership, we do NOT respond to Meet-up messages. All are welcome, as long as you are ready to write, kind, and considerate of other writers.

See all- VIRTUAL! Let's Write at the Venice Writers BlockLink visible for attendees
Grab your writing utensil of choice, whatever you need for comfort, and your commitment to two hours of solid writing.
Note: Some people have had trouble logging in to Meetup to attend the event. It's more important to me to have you here than have an accurate count of who's coming – or reduce the odds of being zoom bombed – so if you can't figure out how to jump through Meetup's hoops then just...

• 9:30-10: Introductions and socializing. We're a friendly group!• 10-12: Two hours ACTUAL WRITING. Work on your own project or ask us for a prompt or three.
• 12-1: One hour read-back. Anyone who wants to gets five minutes to read from what they wrote. Please read only from what you wrote during the session. This avoids people comparing their first draft to someone's polished piece.
NOTE: This is NOT a critique session. Please limit your feedback to clapping after each person reads. It IS a chance to read your work out loud, which is good for you and good for the group. Reading is voluntary, so don't get stressed. But try it sometime. It will make your writing better.
