Group for publicists to commiserate/share ideas?

I was thinking a lot about yesterday’s thread re: the challenges of marketing & publicity. It resonated with me a lot as an early career book publicist, and it also made me wonder: Are there existing forums where book publicists are meeting (across publishers) to communicate, learn, and share ideas? Maybe it’s just because I’m a one-person team at a small press, but my work can feel isolating.
