Hi everybody,
I'm a writer who lives abroad and I don't have access to a local writing group. I wanted to see if any other subscribers are interested in forming an online group to help improve each others' work. I write as a hobby, but of course I am desperate to be the best writer I can be, and to reach a wider audience!
I am mostly interested in short stories and flash fiction, and have been writing for a couple of years. I write about all types of subjects and genres, but I suppose that many of my characters are foreigners. If you would like to see an example of my work, then you can read a story I had published in Storgy magazine.

Have you been part of this forum before, by any chance?
Just to clarify, I am looking to form a closed group of 4-10 members who send work via email and give detailed critiques, as well as sharing a short themed piece each month.
I belonged to such a group in Tenerife, and there were only six of us at the best of times. It didn't work very well, and I am much happier belonging to this forum..
I don't do much short fiction at present, having just published a novel and with two more in the pipeline, so I'm not much good to you, I'm afraid. I wish you luck with it, though.
It worked well
Too busy these days with paid employment to run it now myself but if you can collect togethet a few others on here I am sure you wd find it enjoyable
There is always places like chapter 79 if they still exist?
