The Scribul Group - Creative Writing for the Masses
I’ve created a new mailing list for those interested in creative writing. It works like this: each week I will send out a creative writing cue to the list. This cue will serve as the starting point or theme for ideas. Then you can come up with a short story, poem, novella, or whatever you feel like based on the cue and share it with the rest of the group. It doesn’t have to be long or perfect, just entertaining and interesting.
The rules are simple: Respect one another, use proper grammar and spelling as much as possible, and have fun. You won’t win any awards for contributing, but you will get the chance to entertain each other and sharpen your creative writing skills.
We can also discuss the steps of the creative writing process, from coming up with ideas to finding a publisher for your work.
If you are interested in joining, you can sign up at the following URL:

Currently I have it set up to where you need to be invited, but you can request an invite and I will approve it. Once you are a member you can invite others to the list, so if you know anyone interested feel free to invite them to the group!
Hopefully this will turn out to be a fun and rewarding experience.
