There are already plenty of writers' groups, but most of them are geared toward hobbyists rather than toward writers who think big (I know because I used to belong to three of them). If you're a self-published author having difficulty selling or promoting your work, or you're a writer who's frustrated by organizers who've told you what you are and aren't allowed to write, or you'd like to write and self-publish but are intimidated by the process, SPACE is for you. My name is Martin, and I've bee …

Shut Up and Write! Meetup is a venue for writers to work in the company of other writers on a regular basis. Writing, whether approached as a profession or as an avocation, is an isolating activity. We provide this forum, writing resources and meeting times as a method of developing a community of creative people. We welcome people who are serious about ‘writing down the bones’ and are looking for the companionship of other writers. Meetup Format Making the time to write one hour per week is an …

We are a small group of novelists looking for intelligent, literate feedback about a completed novel. We read each other's novels and offer constructive notes. Ideally we have already rewritten our novels several times and would like to take them to the next level. (To be clear, this group is not for folks who "want to write" or "want to finish" a novel.) We enjoy reading novels, classic and contemporary, so that we can place our works in context regarding genre, taste, and trends in fiction. We …
