WE'RE BACK and with a Different Name but Same Organizer and Events <3

Writing Sapphic - ATL presents a January's Prompt Based Feedback Circle

• Location: Monday Night Brewing - The Grove in the Conference Room
• When: January 25th, 2026 - Sunday at 5-8PM.

Writing Prompts to pick from for this meeting (You can write all, but only choose one to share, or combine them all in one story):

1. The Family Heirloom Hold's a Secret
2. The Movie you're watching is a Memory You Don't Remember
3. It's your nephews wedding and he's marrying your ex lover's Niece.

I will provide a google drive where you can add your story to. I will send the link closer to the date of meeting/in comments as well.

Please come prepared, as we will be sharing work inspired by the creative writing prompts and receiving/giving feedback in a feedback circle.

*Please note: It's okay if you didn't finish the story! You can still come and share what you have for feedback*

------------------------------------------------------------------------
A space for Sapphic Creatives to hone their craft and build community and socialize in Metro ATL.

Have you been wanting to get back into writing? Looking for a sapphic writing community? Join our events to get inspired with our writing prompts!

Our aim is to create a safe space for sapphic people to foster creativity, encourage self-expression, and a sense of community, discover new ideas, share your work, and receive supportive and constructive feedback from fellow participants in the Feedback circle.

General set up:

• This will be a monthly Feedback Circle for 3 hours.
• Limit of 15 sapphic individuals.
• Event is FREE. But Please support the venue for their generosity and purchase beverage(s) or food.
• Please come 15 to 30 minutes earlier to purchase a drink/food from venue. Please be mindful of our limited time at venue. All attendees deserve feedback on their stories and to not feel rushed.
• Event will begin with intros and what type of feedback each person would like to receive.
• Please bring a device to read your story (phone, Ipad, laptop, printed copy). Be sure to submit to google doc link prior or at beginning of event so everyone has a copy of your prompt/written work.
• We recommend bringing a notepad/make notes of feedback from the feedback circle.

We encourage short stories to be 250-2,000 words maximum. Poetry/other forms of writing is welcome just as long as it's prompt related :)

No prior writing experience is necessary – all skill levels are welcome.
