This is a daytime group about writing, writing, writing. Finding time to write can be an issue, clearing an evening adds to the challenge. We'll write for 45 minutes and process the experience for 15 minutes. If this works well, we may add a critique or education component later. For now, this is just about sitting down and writing.
