Mid-Jersey Scribes & Scribblers

Welcome to Scribes & Scribblers – A Haven from the Blank Page.

Our group is geared to writers of fiction novels and short stories. The group hopes to encourage the newbie, the intermediate, and the recognized writer by sharing information on the writing process (Story Structure, Plot, Character Development, Editing, etc.) as well as brainstorming and “critiquing with kindness” sessions.

So, do you have a great book idea but don’t know where to begin? Are you struggling with your latest novel? Have you been staring at that blank computer screen hoping words would magically appear? Then join us every other Thursday for a collaborative evening of assistance, encouragement, and kinship.

“Who wants to become a writer? And why? Because it’s the answer to everything. … It’s the streaming reason for living. To note, to pin down, to build up, to create, to be astonished at nothing, to cherish the oddities, to let nothing go down the drain, to make something, to make a great flower out of life, even if it’s a cactus.”
