This group is for women who want to become better fiction writers.  If you have a novel you are working on and would like to improve it, this is the place to get excellent feedback.

The goal of this meet-up is to create an ongoing group of women writers that offer support and constructive suggestions regarding plot, dialogue, and character development.  This is not a …

We are a scifi and fantasy writing fellowship. What does that mean? Well, I'll tell you my good reader... a group that meets once every two weeks to support each other's scifi and fantasy writing efforts with - editing, critiquing, discussing ideas or just encouraging our floundering efforts. We welcome any length piece of fantasy and science fiction. And be warned, as avid fans of fantasy and science fiction, you will be exposed to certain nerdishness and plenty of particular.

I started TPW in response to my own desire to investigate the opportunities in the world of travel photography and writing. Many people would love to have the job of a travel photography/writer, but very few are willing to "pay the dues" and learn the craft. Every guy with a camera (GWAC to professional photographers) thinks he can spend $5000 on equipment and immediately start raking in the dough as a photographer. The truth is, it's not about the camera. Give a great photographer a hundred do …

Our goal is to create a supportive and encouraging environment where designers can share their work and receive constructive and helpful feedback.

This group was inspired by the hundreds of workshops I have given all over the US. Photographers were asking for ways to build their portfolios with high quality images and unique concepts. They were running out of ideas / did not have ideas, could not find models, locations or sets and were hitting a wall. After all a photography web-site filled with photos of your dog or your own children might not say "professional" in a way you want it to. This is what we will do here. The instructors will a …

The purpose of our group is very simple: we discuss and analyze ideas. The word "analyze/analytical" is not a reference to syllogistic, analytical philosophy, but rather stands for those who like to analyze and critique ideas. Its a place for thinkers to connect with other thinkers! The format is also very simple: there is a brief 15 to 30 minute lecture (the shorter the better) followed by a civil conversation. We believe in organic group mingling. Not all thinkers are compatible, as thinkers …
