Each week this group meets to exchange news about writing in the Champaign-Urbana area, share a craft tip or exercise, and then (the main activity) read passages members have written and have the group critique them and make suggestions for improvement. This group includes all genres and forms: children’s stories, young adult, science fiction, historical fiction, memoir, poetry, song, travel – you name it.

All levels of experience are welcome. We all start somewhere, and the best place is in the company of those who are working toward the same goals.
