I’m seeking to gather with other writers for a different kind of writing group. Twice a month on Saturday we’ll meet for two hours (such as 10-noon) and write using prompts and journal format (i.e., no keyboarding on a laptop). Each writer will share the result for that exercise; usually there is enough time for two exercises and reading. The ground rule of the group is NO critiquing. The intention is to make a date with oneself to write, to meet up with kindred souls, to play with one’s muse, and have fun with the craft. Meeting location to be determined; probably in a public space, such as a meeting room at the Santa Clara City Library. No attendance commitment required, and the group will be open to new participants from any location.

Right now I’m looking for responses and will choose a start date once I have some interested folks. Approximate start date is mid-October. I’ve posted this on Cragislist as well. Please email if you’re interested. Just click on the “send feedback” link in the About column (sidebar).
