Writing Adventurers offers multiple ways for writers to reach their personal and professional goals. We have Live Meetings & will soon reinstate in-person meetings.
Join the Facebook Page to get inspired and connect with other writers.
Writing Goals Meetings – To encourage each writer to reach his/her/their goals. The members listen, support, and offer insight to help each other. Each member presents their broad goal and their envisioned steps to reach it. They also provide what they have been doing to reach said goal, no matter the progress.
Writing Support Meetings – are designed to address more writer-specific issues, support each other, highlight writer self-care, and create a spiritual space for writing not specific to any organized religion.
Writing Book Club – The best way to learn is to study, discuss, and practice. Join us as we travel through literature and film to improve the writing craft.
