To properly describe the Grove of the Ancient Willow, imagine the Druids sailing from Europe in exploration or to get away from the execution of the Romans and they find North America by chance or by divination and prophecy.

Here the druids build new monuments as they move around north America and make themselves a new sanctuary alongside new friends. As part of the Grove we follow exactly t …

I will also guide the group in their critiques which can be helpful to new writers and new groups in gener …

Do you like to write? If yes, do you find it difficult to make time to sit down and write? This is a meetup group for people to get together and, well, write. The group (or whoever RSVPs) meets once a week. For 1-2 hours (or however long you can stay) we sit down and write quietly. Once a month we'll get together afterwards to talk about our writing or just socialize. I'm not interested in critiquing, lectures, and the like.

Members gather to ask questions and give advice about every stage of the publishing process, from writing a manuscript to querying an agent to negotiating a contract.
