We are a group of serious writers that meet somewhere comfortable and write for 2, 3 or 4 hours straight. Each person works on th …

This is a platform where writers meet writers, where ideas fornicate, where babies are born and their cries are shut by a dot.

This is a ticket into the world of unconscious, of unimaginable imagination and out-of-borders inspiration. If you wish to write, this is your first stop.
