Published essayist and creative nonfiction writer in Manhattan seeking one disciplined, productive, and focused home-based published and/or serious freelance writer to meet with during the afternoon, weekday evenings, or weekends on the Upper West Side (from Barnes & Noble on West 81st up to Columbia University area).

Just want to connect with other writers (playwrights, fiction, magazine writers) who need a kick in the pants, a sounding board, and cup of coffee or tea (maybe a kettle or pot of coffee if we're comfortable enough to meet at each other's homes).

Not looking for socializing for the sake of socializing/drinking. Writing relationships/community building is what I seek.

Writing is a solitary life. Reach out and touch!
