Writing offers a way for people to connect to deeper, wiser aspects of ourselves – a way for us to find out, as the poet Audre Lorde said, “what we didn’t know we knew.” Almost every writer has experienced mysterious moments when the words that flow from our pens, or from our fingers on a keyboard, seem as if they come from someplace else – a place beyond our small human selves. Sometimes, when we let it happen, it’s as if the words become a little boat, a raft on which we can sail in a larger s …

8 attendingWe write, we love, we hurt, we heal and begin again. We are Bohemians in the truest sense of the words and write only to forget. We are primal deviants who made pure by the certainty of our transgressions, Saints who would be whores but cannot afford the dues. We meet, we read, we laugh, we drink, far too much and cut ourselves to shreds in search a single sentence that moves our hard hearts. Perhaps we spend too many nights alone, perhaps we are simply in need of fellow fools to soften the blow …

5 attendingIf you're a writer in your 20's, you know how difficult it can be to find others who are on the same page as you. Most writing meetups in San Francisco are composed of older adults, and while they're lovely folks, it's not possible to build a social group with people who are decades older. Being a young writer is a specific stage with its own difficulties, and we should face this challenge together! So let's meet up, make friends, talk craft, and most importantly, let's write.
