Details

Did you write this week?
Come join our online writing group session. We're a supportive and friendly peer group that welcomes writers of all genres, styles, backgrounds and skill levels. Global group!

WHAT WE'LL DO:
Our goal is to get writing done. We'll start with a brief hello and writing project check-ins. Then we'll clock 50 minutes of writing time. We don't offer a prompt. People work on all kinds of projects - or even simply write in journals.

After the writing time is up, you can stick around and volunteer to read what you wrote, or listen to others. We try to keep readings under 7 or so minutes each, with another 7 minutes or so for people to respond.

We're not a hard-core critique group. Feedback focuses on what people thought or felt when they heard your work, or provides simple suggestions for making the work stronger. We're a positive, encouraging group. New members and drop-ins always welcome.

This event is shared by the Seattle Writers Group, who have been meeting weekly for over 17 years. Since adding an online option, the Seattle Writers warmly welcome writers from all over the globe to join writing sessions.

HOW TO JOIN:
This meetup is held via zoom. RSVP on meetup to see the zoom link.

TIPS:

  1. Be prepared with something to write with - pen and paper, or keyboard.
  2. Reading or sharing your work is completely optional.
  3. Totally fine if you can only join for the writing portion and can't stay for the readings.
  4. It's easier to talk to you if we can see your face, but you don't have to turn your camera on.
  5. You will be able to preview your video before you enter the meeting. You can keep your video off the entire time if you wish.
  6. If this is your first time using zoom, click the link 5 minutes before the start of the meetup to get all set up.
