Writing Fiction: Getting Started and Sticking With It with Meghen Kurtzig {Member Meetup}

Hosted by Meghen Kurtzig at The Hivery | July 17 | 12 - 1 PM | Mill Valley, CA

This week's discussion topic is: Writing Fiction: Getting Started and Sticking With It 

This member-led meetup will be hosted by Meghen Kurtzig! 

Join Meghen from 12 - 1 pm  for a casual, in-person member meetup at The Hivery. 

From Kerry: Do you have a story idea? When I tell people I spend my days writing fiction, they often respond with "I have an idea for a story!" Some just want to share the idea but many others will ask me how to get started. 

If you have a story that longs to be told and are looking for inspiration on how to bring it to life, please join me. Maybe you've started a story, but don't know how to keep coming back to it. Maybe it hasn't decided if it wants to be a short story, a novel, or flash fiction. I'd love to hear about it and help you navigate different ways of bringing your words into the world. 

No writing experience necessary. I had zero when I started writing and have now been writing fiction for a decade. I've published a literary short story and essays on writing. I've collected rejections on my first novel and am chipping away at my second. I'm happy to share my tips and tricks on getting words out of your head and onto the page as well as how to keep coming back to the work. 

This meetup can be the beginning of the discussion and if you want to continue the pep-talk please check out the podcast Writing is a Verb for more thoughts from me and my amazing writing group. It kept us busy during the pandemic and we hope it inspires your creativity.

Bring your lunch (brown bag style!) or order from the Hivery Secret Menu at Tamalpie (and pick up).
