Writing can be lonely. Sometimes we need to be with other writers to talk—or to listen to ideas related to writing––in a casual, free-style discussion. For example:

• Ask advice on writing issues, e.g., getting unblocked
• Compare writing processes
• Discuss advice received or read in a journal or on the internet 
• Express concern about a genre and perhaps get input
• Recommend online writing sites and blogs
• Share writing opportunities, e.g., conferences and calls for submissions

Purpose for discussion: Socialize, motivate and inspire more and better writing for participants. 

• It is not a free write
• It is not a rant session
• It is not a critique group (don’t bring your novel or multiple copies of a chapter)

Guidelines:
Although the chat is informal, be mindful about sharing the time with one another so everyone can have a chance to contribute to the discussion. The goal, after all, is to stay in touch with the heart of why we choose to write.
