Don't know if Freo is good for you. (it's the same place we did our Noongar language course and is a nice place, good parking) https://www.fremantle.wa.gov.au/tmp
Call out for facilitators!
Our Shut Up and Write! group has become more popular than we could have ever imagined! So popular, in fact, that we need a second group! Are you a writer interested in facilitating a group of like-minded creatives? We're looking for someone to run a monthly social group to foster creative writing in a supportive and inclusive environment. If this sounds like an opportunity you’d be interested in knowing more about, please contact The Meeting Place on 08 9432 9676 or email meetingplace@fremantle.wa.gov.au before 15 August.

One has to be careful with writing groups. They are tolerant and inclusive so long as you agree with them.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link. Its a bit far away and probably not for me.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I think I'm slow evidently according to others output is not my problem. I've rewritten three and written two new short stories last two months. In between I wrote a new first chapter for the second book about Clive and his companions while revising and rewriting quite a bit of the second novel. The first book has also had some telling work done to it and I think it shows some improvement as a result.
I already go to two writing groups now and are fortunate that one is and the other tolerates speculative fiction.
So many groups are into memoir, romance, literary fiction and poetry to the exclusion of all else. All worthwhile but not my cup of tea.
If you're a specfic writer that end up at one of those groups you quickly find yourself very politely and inclusively on the outer.
I hope you can get to Swancon seriously next year. Lots of support and groups for SF writers of course! Genghiscon is also something to consider.
