It seems like most writing meetups meet during the working day, and I imagine I'm not the only one who is working during that time. This meetup is for writers and aspiring writers of all kinds. The idea is that we will meet at a cafe in or near Longmont to write for an hour and a half or two, and then if people want to stay to chat about what they've written, get feedback, just say hello, they can stay. Once the group gets going, I'd like to invite established authors to come talk to us about th …

The Louisville Writer's Workshop is a group for writers of all levels from any genre.

The group will be facilitated by Rachel Weaver, MFA.

I am a serious writer in need of a serious but fun critique group. I love to critique and I am in need of critiquers. I would like to open the group up to writing exercises, talking about writing, help brainstorming ideas or bouncing off ideas, and just to be surrounded by those who enjoy the torture and pleasure of writing as much as I do.

Writing Church is for you if you’re: a Sinner: You don’t write but you know you should. a Saint: You write three times daily. an Atheist: You don’t believe you’re a writer. an Agnostic: You don’t believe you’re a writer or not a writer.   Malcolm Gladwell, in Outliers: The Story of Success, says it takes 10,000 hours of deliberate practice to master a skill. For the hell (or heaven) of it, we’ll meet regularly/religiously to prostrate ourselves before the blank page and generate lots of origin …

There's a group for writers but they're all 40-50 years old, there's a group for artsy folks (I'm assuming, I don't know this for a fact), there's a group for twenty somethings but all they do is the geeks who drink circuit, but there's no group for creatively persuaded 20 somethings who like to drink coffee and shoot the shit about stuff (be it intellectual fodder, books, art, music or just whatever), So I decided to start one. I guess this is really just a veiled attempt to make some like mind …

This meetup group is for screenwriters to share work, get feedback, gab about the screenwriting biz, and get motivated. The group is oriented to writers who have a good understanding of screenplay form and are interested in developing their craft and offering thoughtful feedback on others' work.
