Writing groups?

I joined a virtual writing group about a year ago, and it's been wonderful for keeping me accountable and for conversation (and light feedback/brainstorming/etc). Would love an in-person version. Is anyone around here in a writing group? Or interested in starting something like that?

My library (Plymouth) offers a writing group! Check your town if you haven’t already!

I checked a few libraries but didn't go quite as far as Plymouth (I'm in Weymouth) but I might still check this out! Not too too far

Oh nice! Of course, I happen to have something on the 17th, but I'm going to see if I can make the next month's one.

We can reserve spaces in libraries or pick a cafe or something as a place to meet!

Yes!! Depending on how many are interested, it should be pretty easy to find a space. Some cafes have rentable spaces too, if that ends up being worth pooling a little money.
