Vancouver Science Fiction Writers

What We're About:
We're a science fiction & fantasy writing group. This is not a critique session or a writing accountability group. Instead, we provide a 45-minute facilitated discussion focused on a single submitter’s story concept. Whether your novel is brand new, half-written, or nearly complete, this is your chance to explore the big questions that shape your world, characters, and plot.

Whether you’re building an intricate sci-fi universe, a gritty dystopia or a character-driven fantasy, our group offers a focused and engaging space to develop your ideas.

What We Discuss:
• Worldbuilding – unique settings, speculative science, alternate dimensions, advanced civilizations, virtual societies
• Characters – names, appearances, motivations, abilities, conflicts
• Technology & AI – ethics, capabilities, future implications, time travel & paradoxes, Interstellar travel, cryopreservation
• Monsters, Robots & Aliens – creatures, pathogens, intelligence, threats
• Conflict & Story Tension – political struggles, survival stakes, invasions, moral dilemmas

Join us to brainstorm, develop, and refine your story in a supportive, creative space!
