The Calgary Writers Meetup Group

If you are looking for a writer's group that is full of fun loving but serious writers who want to BE SOMEBODY and DO SOMETHING HUGE WITH THEIR LIFE... then you found it!

Advice, Education, Support and Feedback is the name of the game and we are here to play.

We found a great location that is easy to get to, and only asks us to bring a donation for the foodbank. HOW GREAT... there is room to write and grow here which is what we needed. Having the meetings at the other places we simply have just out grown it :)

Some meetings throughout the year maybe in a different place, so please check everytime ok?

We have an amazing and talented group of writer's, many are published authors, and many more that are making their writing dreams come true.

If you want to write then go ahead and...

  • "Hi Kimberly. Thanks for the welcome. I am starved for contact with writers as I feel it is such a unique calling. I have to get to know some people who have a passion for writing like myself. I was part of a group in Victoria and got a lot out of it. I write fiction and poetry. I self published a book of poews as a way to introduce friends, writers, to my work. I've received incredible feedback from it. What are you working on now?"
