I’ve been having a rough time concentrating at home lately. There always seems to be things that take priority over my writing – AKA laundry, cleaning, you know real life stuff. Thing is, I can’t just let the house stuff go, and if I do, it eats at me. But it also eats at me if I’m not able to write. As a matter of fact, I pretty much turn into a snarling grizzly. AKA it gets scary ugly. So, my writing friends and I came up with an idea…
The Muse Crew is hosting a write-in every week at our local community center in Hamburg, MI. We provide a quiet place to work on projects and the writers bring the rest! We are there every Sunday, from 11:30 to 4:30 and take a short break in the middle of the session to allow for open discussion/feedback on the projects being worked on. It is our hope that some satellite writing groups will form from the interaction, but at the very least it will be a supportive place to work on our projects and bring some consistency into our writing lives.
Our plan is to have an educational element once a month as well, and invite speakers to discuss writing, publishing, marketing or any other topic the group finds interesting. We are only a few weeks in so I don’t have much to report, but will provide regular updates on the Muse Crew blog as well as on Facebook and Twitter. At this time, there is no cost to participate.
For anyone interested in participating, or speaking at this type of event (free of charge), please feel free to email the crew at themusecrew16@gmail.com or follow them at the following social media links:

Please be sure to sign up for email updates on the Muse Crew Facebook page! The post will be pinned to the top of our feed. Happy writing!
