The Department of Writing (DOW) meets twice a month to discuss and critique pieces of writing submitted by members. You do not have to supply writing to come to the meetings, but participating with some constructive criticism is a must...otherwise we'd suspect you were just there for the free snacks and wine. At the opening of each meeting we free-write for a half-hour using a prompt supplied by a member of the group and discuss what we learned and created. Then we critique pieces by one or two writers, which have been emailed out to the group in advance. We review all genres of writing; writers of every experience level are welcome.

We meet on the 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month. We communicate with each other via email and also on Facebook in The Book Loft Literati group. Contact the store if you would like help joining.
