So, you wanna be a financially successful author, eh? Unless you set a solid theme within a defined genre using appropriate archetypes, your goal may prove elusive.
Join us at this weekly meet-up for LGBTQIA+ writers (allies welcome)! This is a safe space where all identities, forms, genres, and skill levels are celebrated and embraced.

A plot without a conflict is like a car without a gas tank: It might look lovely from a distance but it isn't going to get you anywhere.

Every good story balances speech — both internal and external — against action, within a defined place-and-time that, in itself, functions as a character.
Join us for our annual kickoff celebration.
