NO VENUE!---I'd like to hold a meetup, but am waiting for a suitable free venue to open up. Please suggest one if you can!

_____________________________________________________
This writers group has been created specifically for those interested in developing their skills through the exercise of short fiction writing. No prior experience is necessary, only the determination to write regularly and the willingness to critique and be critiqued.

Workshops follow this simple format:

You write something for the group. You bring your story to the workshop. You read it aloud, or have someone read it for you. The group critiques your story. You critique the writing of the others.

The aim of this group is to motivate writers lacking community and support as well as develop fundamental skills in the art of story-telling.

Meet-ups are held twice a month on Friday night, downtown Vancouver.

What members are saying

 I like Joel's motivation for starting the group (looking to improve the writer, not the writing necessarily) and it shows in how he runs it and how the group members interact. I'll be back. 

Kevin

 No matter how serious or committed your passion for creative writing is, one and a half hours spent with this group is time well spent. ...
