Write with Friends
creative writing group for inspiration & community
WINTER TERM:
8 weeks
2 hours / week
Early 2026
DATES & TIMES TBA!
This writing group is for new and seasoned writers of all creative genres! To meet as many writerly goals as possible, we alternate between generative writing sessions (garner new inspiration) and accountability sessions (make real progress on your current projects).
The Winter Term runs for 2 hours per session for 8 weeks, while the Summer Term runs for 90 minutes per session for 14 weeks.
Join us to find your community, rediscover the joy in writing, and establish a sustainable writing practice!
During accountability sessions, we will...
- set our intentions for the session;
- do a few 20-40 minute writing sprints; and
- have writer-to-writer check-ins to build relationships and ask those writerly questions you've been dying to discuss.
During generative writing sessions, we will...
- read and discuss published works by master writers;
- pick up craft techniques and explore new genres/styles; and
- use guided prompts to start new pieces.
At the end of every session, we'll debrief how writing went, and each writer will have an opportunity to briefly share a snippet of their work. The last session will be reserved for in-depth sharing.
Please note that we will not workshop each other's writing in this writing group. Additionally, writers will not be expected to read or write outside of our sessions — although you are, of course, welcome to do so if you'd like!
Congratulations to the Summer 2025 cohort of Friends for all of their writerly accomplishments and steadfast commitment to their creative community!

WINTER 2026 WRITING GROUP FEES
To make this writing group as accessible as possible, I'm offering two ways to pay:
Pay Per Session
For writers with a busy/unpredictable schedule and writers seeking a looser writing practice, this is the most flexible option.
To receive the Zoom link, submit your payment and email below before the session. Come to as many or as few sessions as you'd like and pay when you show up!
"NO QUESTIONS ASKED" SLIDING SCALE:
$33-63
The Best Friends Pass
For writers who want to "go all in" and plan on attending at least six of the eight sessions, this is the most cost-effective option.
Pay a lump sum up-front for all eight sessions. With the Best Friends Pass, you...
1) get to send me topics you want to explore during generative sessions,
2) give yourself extra accountability to show up and write every week, and
3) pay less than $24 per session!
