This group offers a forum for writers to learn and exchange practical information they need to get published. Members gather to ask questions and give advice about every stage of the publishing process, from writing a manuscript to querying an agent to negotiating a contract. While there are many groups for writers out there, most focus exclusively on the craft of writing, while failing to address the practical information that publishers really care about and that can make or break a book deal. …

The Stratford Scribes is a group of Fairfield County writers serious about the creation and publication of their craft. The group meets in Stratford, Ct. and owes a philosophical debt to Roberto Calas for both the tone and format of the meetup. We are a group of writers committed to pushing each other to achieve the writing life (and audience) to which we aspire.

We are an eclectic group of entrepreneurs, writers, publicists, agents, technologists, literary coaches, and publishing professionals. We are striving to create a community of people who will be driving changes in the publishing industry.

The purpose of this group is to provide a supportive community for people who love to write but who can never seem to find the time when left to their own devices. This group will give deadlines that must be met and where peers can give constructive criticism and feedback to each other. Trade tips on overcoming writer's block, procrastination habits, and the like. As well as get together and discuss writing and books with others. Anyone who needs that extra incentive to sit down and write is enc …

I love to write. I know there are other people who love to write along the shoreline area too. Let's get together to explore our creative souls and support each other through this sometimes lonely process. All skill levels are welcome. Please bring enough copies to share with the group. I am looking forward to meeting new writers and learning about their creative methods.

It's time to rekindle the group for the new year, and there are a few changes.  I welcome your thoughts on them. 0.  First, let me address some questions people have asked.   This is a writing group, not a critiquing group.   You don't need to distribute work ahead of time or do any homework.   You can write anything you want; there is no preferred genre or style.  You can come as frequently or infrequently as you wish.   You can RSVP or not, show or not.   We do not charge, we do not judge. 1.  …

I am creating this group to bring together like-minded folk who share the love of poetry. I'd love to meet people who have time to get together at least twice a month to share ideas and poems. I hope we can all help each other become better writers and give inspiration and motivation to one another.

This group is for fiction writers looking for guidance and support as they grow as writers. The group is organized by Kip Langello, published author and Writer's Digest Magazine teacher. The goal is for aspiring writers to learn from more experienced writers, to workshop their material and to find their way to publication.

This group's aim is to connect local creative non-fiction women writers to form "writing buddy" partnerships. Published and aspiring writers are welcome to join. Some people have asked what creative nonfiction is. I'd refer people to two excellent books on the topic, although there are many others out there. Lee Gutkind's You Can't Make This Stuff Up, and Adair Lara's Naked, Drunk and Writing are two books that every CNF writer and aspiring writer should check out. Creative Nonfiction Magazine i …

What is this group all about? Our members aim to become better writers in social scientific disciplines and to see more of our work published. We also like to spend time with others in a lively social venue where we can share good times, good drinks, and good food. Where did the idea for this group come from? If you're like me, the challenge of writing books, chapters, and journal articles for publication can be vexing at times. Rather than succumb to the pressure, I thought it would be better …
