This FREE gathering for writers of all levels and genres happens every FIRST and THIRD FRIDAY of the month, 6 - 8pm EST. On the FIRST FRIDAY of the month, we warm up with and respond to a number of engaging prompts (each session's prompts are based around a theme, so check our theme schedule below!), followed by by (optional) sharing and discussion. Despite the session's theme, prompts are open and accessible to writers of all genres. On the THIRD FRIDAY of the month, there will be no prompts given outside of a quick warmup, and the session is geared toward writers continuing work on independent projects. Discussion and sharing will happen in the last half hour. This is usually a large group, and it's generative in nature, rather than instructive - so it's great for getting back into the flow of your writing and/or writing in the company of others. If you're looking for a smaller workshop group that meets regularly or something with more craft instruction, check out our lineup of online workshops & classes! |
NOTE: Community Writing will be held ONLINE via Zoom video conference, TWICE every month (first and third Fridays), until further notice. Please note in the description how the two sessions are different each month. You must RSVP to receive the link to the sessions, but please RSVP JUST ONCE, regardless of how many sessions you plan to attend.

I am LOVING working with you, Joy, every other Friday. I have also enjoyed Kate's input which spurred me to join her Tuesday night class, which is also fabulous. Your enthusiasm, your commitment, your deep interest in process and craft and creative impulse make working with you feel great. I will be signing up for more classes this summer.

It was great to be writing with the PVWW community again. This was as fun as when I'm in class in Williamsburg. I'm so excited that you've moved online! Thank you.! |
The prompts are excellent general warm ups, and this past time one of them has cracked something new open for me. |
The prompts were so timely and compassionate in their approach. They were really thoughtful and full of potential-they all related to each other but were open enough to allow us to really dive in. |
I felt less self conscious than if I had been writing with a group in person, and more relaxed and creative. Joy is very encouraging and upbeat and provides a space for the writing juices to flow! |
