Writer's collective

Hello everyone

I've been looking for something for a while and have had no luck in finding it. Since I tend to be the hands on problem solving type of person I have taken it upon myself to just make it at this point. Basically what I've been looking for is a small group of writers who despite working independently of one another on their own projects support each other by being there to lend an ear, be critical of an idea (In a supportive manner) and the like. This group would have to be multi genre, since I write in a number of different categories including Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Horror, Erotica and Spiritual.

At this point am thinking a small group of about 6 people including myself. Am figuring we would meet through an e-mail group and maybe IRC chat from time to time. Doing things like word wars with one another and just being there for the other.

If this sounds at all interesting to you send me a message and let’s try and make this happen.

I have attempted this very thing in other communities and everyone just faded out.
For the last week, Spirit has been telling me 'You need a writing buddy'.....'get yourself a writing buddy'
Of course I hesitated, or is that procrastinated, due to my past experience, but HEY! look at this.
If everyone could hang in there, it would be great!
I am SO game!!
I also have several ideas, from a childrens book to Trilogy, autobiography to a "How To"; ▶ Reply to This

So what do we think would be the right way to take this. We could make a small e-mail list, or maybe a group here on pagan space? Suggest?

Are either of you doing NANO as well?; ▶ Reply to This

I also dabble in Fantasy (both Young Adult and Adult) and article writing...; ▶ Reply to This

I need help keeping going sometimes when it comes to writing, and a some people to help me along would be great. I also love read... just about all print, so I would love to be able to help others in anyway I could, if possible.
