What we’re about
This group is for both new and seasoned writers as well as attendees of our sister meetup, Hudson Valley Fantasy Readers who are interested in taking a crack at writing their own work of fantasy.
While we are primarily a fantasy writers club, other genre fiction (sci-fi, romance, horror, mystery, etc) writers are also welcome. We are a 21+, LGBT+ friendly group that sometimes meets in bars or establishments where alcohol is served. This is also a fandom friendly space, so feel free to come and work on your Witcher, Harry Potter, Baldur's Gate, etc fanfiction as well!
No reading or writing homework is ever required; you simply get to show up and write! We kick off each meetup with a 15 minute writing exercise to get the creative juices flowing before launching into 40 minutes of uninterrupted writing.
This is not a critique circle. Attendees are never asked to share what they have written or provide feedback on a fellow writer's work. The focus of these workshops are to give attendees space to write and connect with likeminded fantasy readers and writers.
