I started this group in hopes of replicating my favorite literary group, The Inklings (e.g., C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Charles Williams). After research I found that their Christian writing group helped them to succeed as authors through community, critiques, encouragement, and accountability. I am on a quest to better my writing and find this community. This group is for you if you have made the courageous choice to share your writing with others. It is designed for those who want feedback to …

5 attendingWhy? There’s no creative community in Chicago’s Northwest Suburbs. That’s a shame. We know there are plenty of creatives out here who want to connect with other creatives, network a bit and learn a few tricks. Right now, we’re all dispersed.

Besides, why should the downtown Chicago creatives have all the fun? We’re in the burbs. We shouldn’t be penalized for tha …
