About this Event

This is an in-person only event, which takes place at Charis Books and More. This space is free but we recommend you RSVP to reserve your spot because space is limited. Please read the in-person event guidelines at the bottom of this page to be sure you can participate in the event.

Charis Books and More & Sapphic Creative WritingGroup are excited to bring our community a monthly space for sapphic, trans, and non-binary people to write and socialize.This space will include writing prompts and time to share your work and receive feedback from fellow participants. No prior writing experience is necessary – all skill levels are welcome. Our aim is to create a safe space for sapphic, trans, and non-binary people to foster creativity, encourage self-expression, and a sense of community. The Sapphic Writing Group will meet at Charis on the 2nd Wednesday of each month. Join us on Wednesday, November 12th at 6:00pm EST!

This will be our last gathering of 2025 but we'll be back next year beginning on January 14th at 6:00pm EST.

November's meeting will be hosted by Kait. Kait (she/they) is a queer writer and actor based in Atlanta, GA. Their independent study in magical realism earned them the Anne Rivers Siddons prize for short fiction in 2019, and their films can be found on various streaming platforms. Kait is fascinated by people, personal expression, and is passionate about connecting to and uplifting her local queer community.
