The coolest writers circle ever! We meet twice a month, every other Thursday at 7:30.

Here's what you can expect; You'll ring the doorbell, a smiling woman will answer the door and offer you pink lemonade or tea and cookies. You'll sit down under a mosaic of a Ballerina and sample the refreshment as the other group members trickle in. When everyone …

The Writers Cafe, which started in the fall of 2010, has been going strong for over a year and a half now. I am currently hoping to add two members to the group. If you are interested, join up and send me an email. I'll contact you and give you an email address where you can send a writing sample -- either a chapter of your novel or a short story. Please don't be intimidated by this request. It's not a about judging whether you're "good enough," but rather, we have a great group of writers and I …

Have you ever read or watched a story that was okay, but something seemed to be missing? Are you currently writing a story and struggling to determine the most believable way for your characters to interact? Does one or more of the scenes in your story seem out of place? Do you want to leave your audience with a feeling of having experienced a complete story? The Dramatica Writers Group in San Francisco is for writers of all genres who want to improve their storytelling skills by using the Drama …

… These gifts are not available only to those who meet a certain standard of achievement as writers. They are available to all who write, because they come about through the process of writing, rather than as the result of a finished product. Understanding that the real goal is that unfolding, that flowering-forth of the self – and that the writing, when it comes, is simply gravy – can help us make a very important change in our personal process. Rather than putting pressure on ourselves, we can …

… Just an excuse to hang with other artists and create. Share if you want, and even if you don't want, on occasion. Talk your way down from a creative cliff or put your earbuds on and close the rest of the world out as you make your own personal magic happen.

No pressure. First half hour is meet and greet …

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 a …
