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 …

The SWG has been around for over twenty years, but is just now catching up with this "Meetup" technology.(LOL!)

Nonetheless, the group, though small at the moment, will soon start to grow and flourish as it once was. This is truly a place for novice, intermediate, and seasoned writers who would like to share their work in a friendly environment where harsh criticism is reprimanded. Even if …
