This group should be writers of fiction, drama, and poetry.  Since most creative ideas for writers come from within us, we have found that regular writing of a diary, a journal, or of memoirs, is a vital part of creative writing. By writing memoirs, or keeping a journal/diary, we tap into the vast creative storehouse of our memory on a regular schedule.   We should meet weekly and each member should be prepared to read his or her week's memoir or journal, usually about 500 to 2,000 words. We wil …

Any of this sound familiar? "I want to write but can't find the time..I'll finish this novel someday...the laundry is more important than writing...coffee and strangers makes me write SO much better."

We make a promise to ourselves to haul the literary rock up and over the hill, and then let the fellowship of writers set it to rolling. May …

So if you believe that there's more to writing at a professional level than following rules such as on page 75 someone needs to die, or the inciting incident must happen on page 17, t …

But if you just want to add a little more fun and laughter to your daily life, there is a science to humor (as well as an art) and that’s what you’re going to lea …
