How can I start my own writing group?

Starting a writing group is a great way to share ideas and improve your writing! First, decide on the group's purpose. Do you want to focus on specific genres, provide feedback, or just share your work?

What should I consider when choosing members?

Consider inviting people with similar writing goals or styles. It's also important to have a mix of experience levels to foster learning and support.

How often should we meet?

Meeting once a week or bi-weekly is common. It keeps the momentum going, but make sure it fits everyone's schedule.

What activities should we do during meetings?

You can share and critique each other's work, have writing prompts, or even invite guest speakers. Keeping it varied can maintain interest!

Any tips for keeping the group motivated?

Set clear goals, celebrate achievements, and encourage open communication. Regularly check in with members to see how they're feeling about the group.
