Reply #7: Writers' group worked pretty well for my gf and me [View All]

[Bossy Monkey]

These 4 1/2 years later, we never seem to go back to the writers' group (though we would if the fun and talented people hadn't left, by and large).

If you don't feel like you're a writer, just join any group whose activities you have an interest in. And don't worry about it. Have fun, and you'll either meet somebody or you won't.

Oh! If David Sedaris ever gives a reading anywhere near you, go. Arrive early and strike up conversations. The audience is like a mix between the Democratic Underground, some kind of NPR listeners conclave, and the 1970s personified (if that isn't redundant). Sedheads are a good bunch.
