Writing Groups

Writing Groups are opportunities for writers with specific writing interests and/or of specific identities to gather together and support one another. The Writing Center hosts a number of writing groups throughout each quarter. Writing Group facilitators support writers’ growth, needs, and interests by facilitating each meeting and offering feedback on members’ writing, focused writing time, and/or writing-related resources or presentations. Facilitators also plan and host open mic events or other socials for their writing group.
