I started TPW in response to my own desire to investigate the opportunities in the world of travel photography and writing. Many people would love to have the job of a travel photography/writer, but very few are willing to "pay the dues" and learn the craft. Every guy with a camera (GWAC to professional photographers) thinks he can spend $5000 on equipment and immediately start raking in the dough as a photographer. The truth is, it's not about the camera. Give a great photographer a hundred …
Welcome to Redmond Roaring Writers! We're a writing/critique group that meets every other Wednesday at the Redmond, WA Panera Bread. This is a drop-in group, meaning that all you need to do is to print out up to 6 pages (double-spaced) of your current work-in-progress. Be sure to check attendance so you know how many to print out. We critique each piece in turn, aiming for delivering helpful feedback in a supportive environment. Thank you for your interest, hope to see you soon!
Let's get together and provide feedback on each other's work. We will meet monthly with new work in hand for others to review, with the hope the deadline will help keep us motivated!

This group is for women who want to become better fiction writers. If you have a novel you are working on and would like to improve it, this is the place to get excellent feedback. This is not a drop-in critique group where you read whatever you have written to a bunch of strangers. It is for serious writers. The goal of this meet-up is to create an ongoing group of women writers that offer support and constructive suggestions regarding plot, dialogue, and character development. This is not …
We are a scifi and fantasy writing fellowship. What does that mean? Well, I'll tell you my good reader... a group that meets once every two weeks to support each other's scifi and fantasy writing efforts with - editing, critiquing, discussing ideas or just encouraging our floundering efforts. We welcome any length piece of fantasy and science fiction. And be warned, as avid fans of fantasy and science fiction, you will be exposed to certain nerdishness and plenty of particular.
… You should join us if: If you are looking for help and critique with a writing project you're working on. Are suffering from blockage or self-doubt or could just use another pair of eyes to take you out of the vacuum of you and your computer, pen, typewriter, etc. If you think that some of the other writing groups are all well and good, but want to get down with some truly possessed lifers! Now that I got that out, we are a critique based group! Please, only come if you want constructive criti …

I myself have been interested in transitioning to creative writing for years, and along with it have come all the struggles; nailing down story ideas, carving out time to just write, writing without censoring, developing clear and connected descriptions of scenery, action and characters and answering the question, "is what I'm writing any good." This group is open to other creative writers who want the support of a group in doing all of that, to share their work with and to feel free to grow …
