Critique group for creative non-fiction writers writing for publication. Word count sent in advance of meeting and hard copies provided for constructive critique. Small group size to permit all members to submit each month and participate in both writing and critique. Our group purpose is to support improvement in members’ writing and provide sounding boards for writing ideas and questions. We seek to provide in-person meet-ups for support, camaraderie, and commiseration with other writers serious about craft and publication. And laugh.

This group is a supportive community of discerning readers and writers, focused on sharing work, giving and receiving thoughtful feedback, and motivating each other. Together, we aim to uphold a high standard in our writing by learning from one another and engaging in meaningful critique.

We are a group of writers working on novels across a number of genres, with a focus on contemporary crime fiction.  Our writers have different levels of experience, some are starting out with their first novel and some have completed works with a view to publication. Regardless, we meet to continue to develop our writing craft and expertise; provide respectful feedback and insights in a supportive environment and have fun while we do it.

A group formed from the 2025 Writing Group Information Day. We support each other in developing and pursuing ideas for non-fiction writing. We have members at various levels of their writing practice and love the chance to continue to learn from each other.

Whatever genre we write in, we can learn from stepping outside our safe zone. If you think that a fantasy writer can learn from a historical fiction author, or a long form journalist has something to offer a romance novelist, this might be your group. No Boundaries is open to writers of fiction and creative nonfiction who are looking for an environment where constructive criticism is exchanged with good heart, occasional humour and a willingness to be surprised.

While some writing experience is preferred, highly motivated beginners may be accepted. It is assumed that members are aiming for publication in some form, whether that be traditional book publishing, blogging, magazine articles, self-publishing, Substack, Medium, or any of the myriad ways we get our work to the outside world.

The Tuesday Poets are a group that has emerged from the long-running Wednesday Night Poets. Offering weekly meetings for emerging poets to read and critique the works of others, they have wide expertise in most forms of poetry.

Join other writers to write alone in a circle of friends and fellow writers.

In the writers circle there’s only writing – no need to share your work unless you want to. Wanting to spend time writing is all that’s needed to come along – just bring your laptop, writing pad, your journal and whatever it is you need. There’s time for chats for the first and last 30 minutes. In between, there’s a (quiet) alarm to set the time for writing sprints. $5 per session.

TVWRA is an online writers room where TV writers and producers collaborate to develop pilots, web series, show bibles, and pitches for market. Members work collectively on each project with occasional guidance from industry mentors (Screen Australia executives, writers, producers, commissioners). Creators retain ownership; collaborators are credited.
