The Cambridge Book Club is based in Cambridge MA and is unique in alternating fiction and non-fiction reads. Reading selections are based on member suggestions and final member vote. We've been going strong for 2 years and we look forward to reading together and discussing the books we read! All readers, all ages are welcome!
This is a group for all those who miss the pleasure of digging into a new book with the knowledge that on the other side of the cover they will have the opportunity for engaging conversation! Prepare yourself for some mid-brow chatter, snacks, and reading. We're aiming for one book a month, democratic voting selection, and wide array of subject matters probably heavily leaning towards fiction. Did I mention the snacks?

A writing group. An accountability group. A lamenting and rending of garments group. Every. Single. Week. We'd love for you to join us! This is a basic get-it-done group. The first half hour we introduce ourselves, discuss our work, and make goals for the week. Then we get right down to writing. Did you know that putting several writers to work in one space creates a kind of bubble of focus and productivity? It's pretty amazing. There is no ending point. People generally start wandering out arou …
One night, a collection of languages met a group of objects and they decided to share a cigarette over a drink. Complementing objects was easy enough for language, who found its partner so very real and touchable. Objects was mostly quiet, not finding much to say about itself, at least nothing equal to the photographs and poetry and sculpture language seemed so content and able to lavish upon it. When they made love, something was born, but soon enough it was on the lam. We are an artist collect …

Creative writing is exciting. We are more likely to grow as writers, both in the enjoyment of our craft and in our productivity, when we are in community with other writers. Writing does not need to be lonely and unproductive, but should be an fulfilling and liberating form of creativity and self-expression. As a member of The Writers' Workshop, you can belong to a community of fellow writers who will encourage you in your craft. Each writer should come to each week's writing session with a pen …

The purpose of the group is to provide informative programs and networking opportunites for authors, publishers, editors, agents, designers, etc. to have a forum to learn and meet.

We are a pretty casual group of ladies who find enjoyment in a good discussion, but as far as book clubs go, we typically do not send out questions in advance or have a concrete schedule as to how each meetup will play out. Often times, our gatherings are split between talking about the book and talking about life in general. We respect each others' opinions and encourage open and honest dialogue at our gatherings. We have a wonderful group of regulars, but always welcome new members! We do …
Comics are brilliant. They are also an overlooked and under-appreciated part of the literary establishment, so we're looking to redress the balance a little. This group will work pretty much like a traditional book club - we pick a new graphic novel or collection every month, read it and meet up for a discussion over coffee or a beer. We're going to try to find the literary corners of the graphic storytelling medium - I'm interested in how art style informs character perception; how panel layout …
Join other 20- & 30-something ladies for a monthly meet up to discuss the book of the month! Looking for a fun, laid back book club without the drama of Poisonwood Bible or the heaviness of War & Peace? We will read chick lit, as well as classics like Emma. We will try to support woman writers but we will never exclude a hunky guy either..... The book club will meet once a month to discuss that month's book. We will also schedule other fun outings as well. Suggestions welcome.
