The Writers Group meets monthly on the second Thursday of each month.

In our writing workshop, participants take turns submitting original pieces of any genre. The group reads several submissions during a month, sharing genuine feedback, constructive criticism and encouragement at the next meeting. A writing exercise is explored in each meeting and samples of writing may be used to illustrate technique or strategy. We welcome newcomers at any level of accomplishment or ambition.
