A Call For Creative People


Words in Progress (WIP) is a writers' group created in 1998. It meets monthly in Elkins Park Pennsylvania to critique member's creative work ranging from flash fiction to novel excerpts, from article writing to memoirs. Members have been published in both digital and print media including major US newspapers, literary journals, genre magazines and books. After critiquing work members suggest possible places to submit, etc.

We are looking for creative people in the Philadelphia area to share their writing and publishing experiences with our talented group. As a member our general requirement is that you must be seeking publication and not solely writing for yourself. Having been published is NOT a requirement, but it should to be a goal.

All genres wanted (I write science fiction, fantasy, and mystery).

If you are interested in joining please contact me through the comments section of this post.

  5. I might be interested in joining. I live in Paoli, so a bit of a schlep, but certainly doable depending on frequency of meetings. Please LMK next steps.

    1. Hi, Jeanette,
      We meet (although lately there have been gaps) monthly. Our next gathering is in March in Elkins Park. What type of writing excites you?
