Question for Southern California Writers

[queenoftheskies]

Does anyone know of any southern California writers/critique groups accepting new members?

I asked this a while back and nobody did, but several people were interested in the possibility of forming one if there was enough interest and we could find a central enough location to meet.

There are more southern California writers on my FL now, I think, so I'm asking again.

If nobody knows of a group, is anyone interested in forming one?

Am I correct in assuming you live in Walnut? I'm in Covina.
I'm in an online crit group and like it very much, but would not at all mind a face to face group, say once a month or so.
(Via friend's FL, BTW)

Yes, I'm in Walnut, so we're not far apart.

I think it would be great to get a group going. Once a month sounds good to me if people can make it. If not, then maybe every 6 weeks or every other month?

How does that sound to you?

Sounds good!

I wish I knew.

I do the online thing; Forward Motion has its Think Tanks on Friday and Sunday evenings, I can usually make one or the other.

(I'm down in Orange County, btw.)

Would you be interested in a once a month or once every two months live southern California group if there are enough people interested?

So far, myself and one other person are discussing the possibility.

I'd love it!

But fair warning, my schedule is both full (I work full time, go to school, and look after my grandmother) and odd (I work retail; while my schedule is regular *knocks on wood* it's not the normal M-F 9-5) so while it would be absolutely great to get back into a face-to-face group, the logistics are always going to be iffy.
