When I was looking for members to join an established writing group of which I am part, I found there were many people who wanted a group for the beginning or novice writer. I started this group for those who might be intimidated by authors they feel are further along in their writing. I will be facilitating the group by giving writing assignments and exercises to those who would like them. I will also guide the group in their critiques which can be helpful to new writers and new groups in gener …

Laughter is good for people. Nice article on the subject: http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2012/0
7/23/laughter-and-heal... I like making people laugh and my hobby is writing comedic monologues for actors to use in Auditions. That said I am the first to admit I am no master at creating funny material on a consistent basis and I really only practice writing-funny when the mood strikes.

Writers mostly write. Besides writing, the second most important act is submitting. I'd like to meet once a month with a group of writers who are submitting their work. During this meeting we can exchange ideas about motivation, where to submit certain kinds of work and the mechanics of submitting material. We can map out strategies for submitting work and make committments to the group about the process.

We meet on Thursday nights in Sandy Hook, typically, and occasionally on weekends. We are looking for fiction writers who are serious about their craft. You don't need a ton of experience, but you d …

Hail and well met, seeker of Faires! For many medieval-fantasy enthusiasts, a visit to a renaissance faire is the result of a convergence of an interest in history and mythology, a personal creative spark, and the drive to bring the vision of the imagination to life. But the faire season seems to flash by, and we find ourselves anxiously awaiting the bud of spring green to herald in the next adventuring season for our inner hero/heroine. But the adventure need not fade with the fall of the las …
