This is a group for creatives in all arts disciplines in the Ashland, Virginia area to find each other for potential collaboration. I believe that Ashland has a lot of "arts" professionals and hobbyists who live under the radar, and are looking for significant change in attitudes about arts both locally and nationally. This is a call out not only to fine artists who might think that the area is not ready for the subject matter that they deal with, but also for musicians, dancers, videographers, …

So, you want to write? A novel. A short story. A poem. A blog. Whatever your writing is, this group wants to get rolling to help and assist you in any way possible. By and large, we meet to discuss the art of writing, the 5 w's of writing (who, what, where, when and why), and the nuts and bolts of the writing process. It is a forum. It is easy. You don't even have to share or read aloud if you don't want to. Just come and listen. If you have been in the closet and just want to hob knob with begi …
