I have grown as a musician because of this participation and I would like to enable the creation and participation of Song Circle events across the country. If you are a musician who wants to play with other musicians, if you have songs to share and want to hear others contribute to your music, and if you want to develop friendships with other musicians, this is the place to come to create or signup for …

We are a group of local writers who enjoy meeting once or twice a month at third place books or a local library to give each other support and encouragement in order to continue writing.  Feel free to join us at any time, and please post a sample of your writing before each meeting so we can read it before hand. That can be a bit of a time saver. Come to the meetings equipped with hard copies of your writing, the willingness to help others and a se …

Hello, and welcome to the Puget Sound E-Publishing & Book Promotion Group!

She moved out of state, so now Mary Sisson is your fearless organizer!

Entrepreneurship permeates the culture of the Digital Age. The global reach of the Internet has democratized entrepreneurship. Never before has it been so possible for anyone from anywhere,  with  a great idea and a burning drive to succeed,  to make it big in a relatively short period of time. Taking a startup from idea to IPO has taken on mythical proportions.  Many dream the dream, with hopes of launching the "next big thing". We are a community of entrepreneurs, technologists, academics, fin …

House concerts and small venues are a great way to experience your favorite musicians in a more intimate and informal way. At a house concert there is no bad seat, because you are all just sitting in the living room while the musician plays just feet from you. Intermission usually includes chatting to the musician about what inspires them or why they wrote a particular song. There is usually shared food and a great opportunity to meet your fellow concert goers. Unlike big venues you really get t …

We'll meet up in North Seattle cafes to discuss story development, loglines, character development, structure, obstacles, r …

Join a friendly group of creatives and independents who like to relax after work with a beer or two. Maybe you're a writer, designer or an entrepreneur. Perhaps you run a small business. If you want to share a post work drink with a few likeminded folks, this is for you. We usually meet on Thursdays, and rotate between Redmond, Kirkland and sometime Bellevue, as that's where most folks who have joined so far reside.

This is a group for people who know they have greatness inside (artists, writers, actors, etc...) them but for whatever reason cannot get motivated for whatever reason to act on their ideas or dreams.
