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 …

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 …
