After pulling my hair out and adding a few more frown lines to my forehead over the last few days, the writing group off my Facebook author page, is FINALLY ready.
If you are not sure whether you will enjoy the group, here are the group rules. You do NOT have to be an experienced writer. I am not going to teach Creative Writing. We shall explore how to write more bravely and with more courage than we have up until now, together as a group.
If you are keen to join in on the weekly prompts, please request to join via the link. It is a private group.

For those of you who have no interest in writing—everything here will stay the same! Thank you for reading my poetry and my stories!
{Chasing Brave} Writing Group Housekeeping Rules.
1) In this group everyone is welcome regardless of religion, belief, gender, sexual orientation or race. Please don’t post links to other sites and any content that can be considered spam. Please respect each other.
2) I will share a weekly prompt either on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. We will explore how to look inward (with courage) and write outward (with brave vulnerability).
3) If you share what you have written, please mention whether you want any feedback from the rest of the group.
4) I am not a Creative Writing teacher, so I will not be focusing on technique. I want to help you take your writing a bit deeper—help you explore taking the layers off.
5) Encourage each other. Be kind! Remember that some members are beginners, others are more experienced at writing, but ALL of us require courage to share our work and our stories with strangers—hopefully we won’t be strangers for long!
6) Let’s turn this into a beautiful, safe, supportive writing community!
7) You do not have to share what you have written with the group, however please try and let us know how the writing exercise allowed you to grow (or not).
If you want to explore writing in a more vulnerable manner, then please join in! We are quite a large group at the moment and I am still finding my way around facilitating such a large number of people, but it is already productive and there has been some brave sharing.
