Writing Church is for you if you’re: a Sinner: You don’t write but you know you should. a Saint: You write three times daily. an Atheist: You don’t believe you’re a writer. an Agnostic: You don’t believe you’re a writer or not a writer. Malcolm Gladwell, in Outliers: The Story of Success, says it takes 10,000 hours of deliberate practice to master a skill. For the hell (or heaven) of it, we’ll meet regularly/religiously to prostrate ourselves before the blank page and generate lots of original …

The primary role of this group is to provide inspiration, information, and resources, for writers of all genres, to help them achieve their writing goals. Because I'm a former literary agent, this group will be of particular interest to writers who would like to publish books with a traditional publishing house like Random House, etc.

Welcome to Moms Who Write.  As a single mom with three sons with my first book published last year and another scheduled for release this year, a magazine publishing job and an endurance sport hobby I have learned how to juggle motherhood, life and writing. It's not easy and I know I could use some support and sympathy now and then as I pursue my writing career.  I'd like this group to be supportive, informative and inspirational to other women raising a family and writing.   I would welcome you …

It seems like most writing meetups meet during the working day, and I imagine I'm not the only one who is working during that time. This meetup is for writers and aspiring writers of all kinds. The idea is that we will meet at a cafe in or near Longmont to write for an hour and a half or two, and then if people want to stay to chat about what they've written, get feedback, just say hello, they can stay. Once the group gets going, I'd like to invite established authors to come talk to us about th …

I want to form a very small group of 5-6 talented writers to meet every two weeks. The purpose is to foster a relationship between a small group of writers so we can help each other be productive, get each other through road-blocks, and create inspiration through constructive criticism and ego-free dialogue. I'm looking for writers who are all on the same level as far as talent. I want to keep the group small because everyone will be asked to read and give criticism on everyone's work... that's …

This is a group for female writers who write with a strong, independent, female voice.

This is a group for writers looking to get better at what we do. One of the best ways to do that is to get feedback from other people. We meet, discuss and give solid critiques to the pieces submitted. Most of our members are fiction writers; however, both fiction and non-fiction are welcome.

For those interested in watching, performing, writing or work-shopping stand-up, improv, sketch comedy, etc. I started this group because I have a small cabaret in Loveland where I recently started booking stand-up comics on Wednesday nights. We also put up original cabarets on weekends that are very comedy-driven. Between writing shows and producing the stand-up comedy shows, my interest in improv and sketch is piqued. I'd like to find like-minded creative-types who want to come to our space an …
