About this Event
Join the Connecticut Fantasy Writers Collective for chats, new writing friends, and writing time! All levels welcome, from published authors to those considering getting started for the first time. No matter where you are on your writing journey, you are welcome here. This is a free event, but please RSVP so we know around how many folks to expect. If you can't make it, please cancel your RSVP since these events are popular!
