Are there other writers in the metro New York City area who are looking for a good writing group, but have been unsuccessful? Have you been burned by other groups? Have you joined groups that didn't last more than a few weeks or months?

Why is it so difficult to find a thriving writing group like those listed in The Writer Magazine? How many others out there would like to join a group of writers en route to publication and production?

There's even one group that began in college whose members live in different cities, yet they still workshop electronically.

We're looking for writers who are enthusiastic about each other's writing. It's also important that the assembled group of artists are mature to take criticism and debate, not argue or justify their work.

In an ideal writing group, writers who are able to read and understand a wide variety of story styles and structures would be a great asset. We've had a successful group that's lasted years and we are looking to add members in our fiction, screenwriting, and graphic novel divisions who share the same committment and philosophy.

If this sounds good to you, check us out online Morningsidewriters, and click on the appropriate group heading and application.
