What we’re about
The Rose City Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers (SFFW) three-fold mission is to create, socialize, and learn. We provide safe, inclusive spaces in-person and online for speculative fiction writers of all experience levels.
Our weekly meetups follow a 10-20 format (socialize for 10 minutes, write for 20 minutes, and repeat until the time is up) so you have accountability to write and a chance to get to know other writers. Come geek-out over your projects, share the ups and downs of your creative process, and exchange knowledge to improve your craft. We believe community is critical to creative success and support all SFF writers—from budding hobbyists to award-winning authors. Whether you write for fun or want to turn publishing into your career, we are here to support your story. Check out our upcoming events list for a meetup location near you!
Outside of these events, we also host dedicated socials every quarter, including lunches, board game nights, and the annual Cyber-magi Rose Awards, where members submit unpublished chapters and short stories to have their writing accomplishments recognized.
