The recent pandemic turned the world upside down, but at the same time, it brought the world closer together. The internet has become a lifeline for many writers.
Check out the online writing groups that those of the Canterbury Writers administration team are actively involved with.
Our very own JJ Wallis has taken it upon herself to build a Discord server for writers in our local community, connecting with the other writers from different corners of the world. While the server is maintained by JJ Wallis, it is not restricted to just Canterbury-based writers. All writers are welcome.
This discussion group on Facebook is for writers based in Canterbury and the wider New Zealand community. Spread news about writer events in your community. Share news with your follow writers. Seek advice for other Kiwi writers.
Let's build a strong writing community together.
(Please note that while this group is currently quiet, we are seeking ways to change that. Hopefully, the FB Overlords won't continually hide our posts.)
This book club (sponsored by Black Wolf Editorial Services) is intended for us to discuss books on writing craft and the publishing industry. A new book will be selected every two months, with discussion threads dedicated to each book and a live discussion at the end of the two-month cycle for those who want to take part.
The server is currently free to join—and members of the book club get a say as to what books will be discussed during each cycle. The group is international, but our very own Judy L Mohr (Black Wolf Editorial Services) manages and maintains it.
Pop on over to the Black Wolf Book Club Discord server, and explore some of the amazing books on writing craft.
