Hello everyone. I'm Eric Griffin. I am a gothic fantasy novelist. I haven't been published yet, but that will change. The purpose of this group is just what the name states. You don't have to be published to be a member, although having at least one published author in the group would be wonderful. I would, however, like to deal with writers who have been around the mountain enough times to employ a strong knowledge of technique and the fundamentals of novel writing. That way, each member …

A meeting in New Westminster every second Wednesday from 7-10 PM effective Sept 5, 2012 with stories ready for critiquing by a valiant band of fellow, aspiring scribes. The mission is to get us writers out of our chairs (or into our chairs, rather) and put pen to paper. And moreover, to get our work primed and ready for publication. Plenty of great writers knew each other from their own writers' groups (Ginsberg, Kerouac and Burroughs anyone?) and there is a reason why they became great. Because …
