Time to Write...on Facebook
by Jill Earl
Since joining Facebook last month, I’ve been working my way through the creative writing groups on there. Thanks to the handy "Creative Writing Groups on Facebook" list, I’ve been amazed at what I’ve found so far. With the goal to help people locate book sites, author pages, writing programs, presses, magazines, writers’ groups, workshop communities and more, you’re sure to find a group--or two--or more to your liking.
A couple of weeks ago, I found the "Time to Write" group. Not a critique or workshop group to share works-in-progress, their aim is to write for a designated amount of time of your choosing. You can do it in a group, by yourself, at home, in your favorite cafe, whatever. It’s all up to you. It really can’t get simpler than that.
I joined and marked Saturday, May 17 on my calendar. And wrote. Not as long as I would’ve liked, but I did something.
The next two "Time to Write" events are scheduled for June 21 and July 19. They’re on my calendar too. Surf over to: https://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=8693557218
If you want to scope out the Facebook creative writing groups for yourself, go to: https://groups.to/creative_writing_on_facebook
You’re bound to find something to your liking.

Thanks! I love to read things about all this social networking and how people are using it. This is very informative! Margo
This is great to know. I was invited into a Facebook writing group for mothers, so I joined, but then there was no activity from the other mothers!!! So I haven't done anything else with my account. I'll check this out though.
Thanks for the heads up! I hadn't considered writing groups on Facebook.
