Kitsap County Writers Group

A writers group is starting up in Kitsap County!

Our goal is to gather a group of creative, motivated writers who live in Kitsap County (or are willing to travel to Kitsap County), to meet on a regular basis and to hold review and advice sessions.

The group will be a source of encouragement, motivation, constructive criticism and learning.

I'm waiting until May 20 for people to join, then we'll see where everyone lives and come to a group consensus on where and when to meet.

Until then, feel free to post what you hope to get out of the group, and any thoughts or questions on the proposed logistics outlined in the meeting notice below.

Also, please tell us something regarding your preferred style of writing and your general location (at whatever level you are comfortable with), either on your profile, a shout, or in the Messages, that will help as we move towards defining format, meeting locations, etcetera for the group.

Location: Poulsbo, WA 98370 47.74-122.63 98370US
Founded: May 8, 2008
Member Fee: none
Members: 11

    "Hello, my name is Scott and I just moved here from Anchorage, AK after graduating with a BA in English. I don't know my way around yet, so it might be hard to make a meet. I am currently staying in Bremerton and looking to make a few friends. "

    "Hello: I live in Gig Harbor so I too would prefer - if possible - a meet locaitn closer to the bridge than Silverdale (Port Orchard perhaps ?). In any case I look forward this first meeting (will post demographics, profile, and picture later). "

  • "I proposed Poulsbo, since it is more central for North Kitsap, but suspect we may end up in Silverdale, especially if a large number of members turn out to live there and in Bremerton. :)"

  • "Since you asked, I'd love it if our meeting were closer to South Kitsap - I don't think I even know where Kingston is! I work in Tacoma, so I need to tack on a half-hour commute to get to a meeting. I'm most familiar with Port Orchard, but I know Bremerton/Silverdale and Poulsbo a bit as well. I volunteer to bake for any meetings!"

  • "Welcome to the group, Sue! Please feel free to share your preferences and opinions on any of the logistical issues. Thanks, Randy"

  • "Randy - Thanks for creating this group! I'm looking forward to the first meeting. -- Sue"

    "I'm finally writing after many years of thinking about it, and I hope to connect with other writers as I go through the process. My work keeps me around young people, so I'm most interested in writing for young adults."
