Calling all middle grade writers! We read and analyze a middle grade novel each month with the goal of improving our craft. We also discuss the middle grade book world. Every first Tuesday of the month.
Weekly "Write-In" Meet Up
Set aside some time each week to sit and write (or draw, or paint) with fellow creators via Zoom.

Every Saturday morning EXCEPT the first Saturday of the month.
