NTWC Writing Group Directory Form
As requested, we at the North Texas Writing Collective are compiling a directory of writing groups in the North Texas area to encourage community and support our craft. To be considered for the directory, please fill out the form below as completely as possible. Because we feel we have a strong responsibility to our community to provide the very best networking, all submissions will be vetted before being listed to the directory on northtexaswriters.com.

What's involved in vetting, you ask? Well, someone will contact you from NTWC using the directory@northtexaswriters.com email address, and they will want to talk you by voice and maybe sit in on your group. We want to make sure that you're real people with a real writing group and not three raccoons in a trench coat trying to trick people into bringing you trash. (Not that there's anything wrong with that, but it belongs in a totally different directory.)
Email *
What is the name of your writing group?
*
Who is/are the person/people in charge of running the group?
*
Please list any websites (one per line) where a person might find your group. This includes any domain you own, a blog site, or social media sites.
*
Are you online, in-person, or hybrid?
Clear selection
What genre(s) do you share? Check ALL that apply
*
Required
Where do you usually meet up? Please list either the public establishment (a specific library or coffee shop or restaurant or comic book store) or, if it is someone's residence, please describe the neighborhood BUT NOT your actual address. We're looking for regional data here.

If you mainly meet up online, please note the name of the service and server that you're using, i.e. Discord, Facetime, Skype, or mIRC. Regional data is not as important here unless your group is hybrid and also meets in person, however, you still need to be in North Texas to be included in the directory.
*
How many people are currently in the group?
*
How many people normally attend meetings?
*
How often and when do you meet (i.e. weekly or monthly, and every other Tuesday, Fridays after 7, the seventeenth Thursday of every year)? Think about how we might add this to our calendar.
*
Describe your format for sharing and critiquing work. Be as specific as you can, including whatever method you use to communicate between members (group chat, discussion list, carrier pigeon, etc.).
*
Do you currently have any published authors in your group? Mark all that apply.
*
Required
What are your goals in being added to the directory? Mark all that apply.
*
Required
Would you like some coaching on how to make your writing group more productive?
*
Do you solemnly swear that you are truly and honestly seeking members for your writing group and not secretly planning on fooling anyone into a group marriage, role-playing campaign, board game group, or other nefarious not-writing group? (Again, that's a different directory.)
