Christian writing is an ideal format for ministering to others in their area of need. Join us as we embark on this journey to be used as vessels for the Lord …

Do you want to write "me too" fiction or do you think you can do better? Do you want to be one of the ten percent that succeed? Would a group that provides external expectation help you motivate? This is intended to be a focused group of science fiction and fantasy writers who want to help each other with ongoing projects. We usually hold bi-weekly meetings on weekends or weeknights depending on what members want. This would be a creative group that helps you flex your writing muscles, by using …

We are a writer's group dedicated to helping our colleagues polish and publish. Please join us if writing is your passion, your thing, or your raison de vivre. We are egalitarian; our writers may be in varied stages of development, but were all beginners at one time. All that we will expect of you as a member is a sincere effort to grow as a writer, and to do your best to provide honest, yet kind, reviews. At our meetups we'll get down to some real in-depth critiquing, and discussions. If you've …

We are a group of writers who enjoy imaginative, perhaps even offbeat, fiction. Our goal is to write well--or at least better--but with the freedom to make mistakes. We are not here to necessarily produce polished, publishable fiction, but to rather to carve out a space where writers can experiment and have fun in a relaxed and supportive environment. Speculative fiction--which includes science fiction, supernatural horror, steampunk, dystopian fiction, magical realism, fantastic allegory, and …

As a non-published, non-professional creative writer I decided to start offering writing workshops to foster love of writing in others. You don't have to know where to put a comma or what a conjunction is in order to use writing as a tool for personal expression. We all tend to get swamped with everyday responsibilities, stresses and work.  As critical as the two out of three of them are we also need time for ourselves.  Time to nurture our love of writing. Once a month we'll hold a themed wor …

I'm an aspiring author. I intend to publish soon (fingers crossed)...but in the meantime, I need to finish my book.  I sincerely need to connect with other serious-minded fiction and non-fiction writers in Mitchellville, MD--to keep me focused. I discovered a few writers' groups in Virginia and lots in DC but want to stay in the MD suburbs so I don't have to venture too far from home on the weekends or after a long day's work. I'm serious about my craft and I'd like to meet with 7 to 9 folks twi …

A group of fiction writers from Frederick (and beyond!) who want to workshop their writing and learn from each other about the craft. Together, we’ll share our writing, get inspired, and grow as a group. All fiction writers, regardless of experience, are welcome. There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed. -- Ernest Hemingway

I spent an amazing year in Edinburgh, Scotland. While there, I was a member of a creative writing group where I met some fantastic writers. I want to start a similar group in the DC area because I know we have many great writers in the area as well. So here we are. The group brings together writers of all ages and from all walks of life. Whether you are a new writer or have published, all are welcome.  If writing is your life, search for a group no longer.  The format is writers will bring no mo …

Quality, commitment, honesty, that's what we're about.   See that low number for members on the home page?  It's meant to be that way, but a few more can't hurt.   We are a committed, interactive group of writers who want to write and get competent feedback on our work.  Though any genre is acceptable, commercial selling and marketing is not the first goal, excellent writing is.  Any age and skill level is welcome, as long as you are quite serious about exploring or continuing the craft of writi …

Swords and sorcerers, gunslingers in black hats, sad girls on park benches, aliens, vampires—Want to share your stories with the public? Here’s your chance to start. The goal of this group is to give unpublished/self-published novelists, short story writers, and narrative non-fiction writers (memoirs, autobiographies, etc.) the chance to help each other develop into professional writers through discussion, critique, and support. Along with writing itself, the group will discuss marketing and pub …

Whether a published or an aspiring Romance Writer. Let's get together for some discussion about the art of writing a Romance novel, review each other's work and provide some constructive criticism.

A group for pagan or pagan-friendly folks who appreciate writing in all of its forms. The writing does not have to be pagan-themed. Here, writers can share their work to a pagan-minded audience for a more specific reaction to their writing. Fiction, non-fiction, poetry, and essays are welcome. I am currently feeling out dates that would work for our group. Please email me and let me know what dates work out the best for you.

Hey everyone! My name is Jamie. I moved to Annapolis earlier this year. Now that I'm getting settled in and finding some fun things to do, I'm looking to meet some great people who share my interests. I called the group Writers and Adventurers of Annapolis because it's partly about getting together with other writers and sharing our stuff, and partly about getting out and finding some great ways to entertain (and hopefully even inspire) ourselves. So whether you're interested in one or the other …

A group for writers of anything who want to meet other writers of anything and talk while eating. We'll talk about writing and not writing. We'll eat food that most writers can afford. We'll share the energy, wisdom, wit and inspiration of other writers. NOTE: This is not a writers group where writing is shared with and critiqued by the group. If members want to share their writing, they can do so on their own with members who appreciate, understand and have knowledge or interest in their genre. …

There are many things that this group is NOT: It's not being critiqued by anyone who walks in off the street, It's not meandering conversations about kids, recipes, having a terrible job, or having no job at all. It's not about blogging, fanfic, children's books, or books that are written in an hour, a week, a month, or a year. What this group IS is meeting regularly with a professional writer and editor who will work on your book on all levels from genre choice to plot arcs to line-by-line edit …
