Pittwater Writers
We are a group of committed writers meeting monthly who are actively working towards completing a novel. We take turns in providing approx 2000 words to the group and comment with supportive feedback in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. We aim to improve our writing skills, finish our work, and publish.
Port Writers
Port Writers is a community writing group located on the Mid North Coast of NSW in Port Macquarie. We aim to provide a comfortable, supportive and cooperative environment. At Port Writers, members are encouraged to share and practice their writing. Writers are supported to improve their literary knowledge and increase their realm of literary experience.

Stanton Library Writers’ Group
Storyism
A friendly group of men and women of different ages and life experiences and a group involved in a variety of writing forms. We hope to provide a forum which stimulates an exchange of ideas to extend the experience, knowledge and enjoyment of the creative writing process. Our purpose is to provide an environment in which fellow writers may present their work for critiquing within both a supportive and helpful environment. Our aim is to motivate and inspire each of us to improve our own writing practice.
Women Writers’ Network
We have been meeting – and supporting and encouraging women writers – for nearly thirty years. We are open to all genres of writing: prose, poetry, fiction, non-fiction, children’s books, plays and screen writing. Some members are striving to be published, many just enjoy writing and providing feedback on others’ work. Our aim is to provide constructive feedback in a supportive environment, fostering all levels of writing. We meet weekly but attendance is flexible – there are usually eight to twelve women at any session. We focus on workshopping each others’ work in a friendly and respectful but rigorous way.
