The Cambridge/Somerville Speculative Fiction Writers Group (or CamberSpec for short) is for everyone writing speculative fiction: fantasy, science fiction, steampunk, alternate history, magical realism, horror ... any sort of fiction that takes the 'real' world and adds a little twist. We welcome novelists, short story writers, and writers of novellas. We are united by our love of this genre, not by the length of the work we produce. CamberSpec is open to writers at every stage of their careers, …

… (PLEASE NOTE: This is not intended to be a writing class that is taught by an instructor; rather we are a collective group of members which is hosted in a way that allows everyone to interact with other writers and share valuable feedback or advice) We encourage every member of the group to share their work and have others members provide feedback as it helps to really see how others perceive one's writing. Aside from writing our own works, we may do little writing exercises or read parts of pub …

Update: As of 3/5/2012, MWC is currently accepting new members. Hello and welcome to the Metrowest Writer's Circle, a writer's group based in Framingham, Massachusetts and dedicated to supporting aspiring writers through revision sessions. All forms of writing are welcome. I started this group due to the lack of writing groups in the Framingham & Metrowest area. I seek to have a small but dedicated group of writers interested in participating in disciplined critique sessions. If this sounds li …

Writers Anonymous is a social writers support group in Boston. It’s been such a rewarding experience. I originally got the idea for this group while I was living in Manhattan. While in NY I hung out with quite a few graduates from NYU, Northeastern, and Columbia who had started a similar writer’s support group, in which they (the original members) all pledged to write something ambitious/monumental and potentially life changing, their first novel. The good news is most did finish. The main pu …

We recognize beautiful prose and poetry when we read it. Many of us aspire to write like the people whose prose and poetry we have read and admired. We have dreamed of expressing ourselves by writing and of having readers much like ourselves tantalized and enchanted by words that have sprung out of our own imagination and experiences. This group was formed to help aspiring writers make their dreams a reality whatever their reasons for writing may be and whatever goals they may have as write …
This group is designed to provide dissertation writers with a structure for accountability. The group will meet weekly to set goals and share work.

A writing group. An accountability group. A lamenting and rending of garments group. Every. Single. Week. We'd love for you to join us! This is a basic get-it-done group. The first half hour we introduce ourselves, discuss our work, and make goals for the week. Then we get right down to writing. Did you know that putting several writers to work in one space creates a kind of bubble of focus and productivity? It's pretty amazing. There is no ending point. People generally start wandering out arou …
