It doesn't matter if you are a bestselling author, an aspiring author, or a writer knee deep in the query trenches. All writers are welcome! The only requirement for attendance is a love of writing (and, perhaps, a healthy disdain for certain artificially intelligent plagiarism machines).
Free to attend, come hang out, engage in a collaborative writing activity, order a coffee or a cocktail or a mocktail or a food, and leave with a couple new friends.
Space is limited so sign up soon!
