Monday Night Writers: Houston is a spin-off of a group I used to organize in Los Angeles. Since I moved to Houston, I'm moving the group, too! Imagine your favorite college writing workshop: this is what I'm trying to accomplish on a grown-up level. We will share a piece of writing in advance, get together, and critique a few writers at each meeting. Whether you write professionally, are trying to get published, or would just like to hone your writing skills... this is the writing group for you …

I live in the League City Area and it's difficult to make other book clubs that are all the way on the other side of Houston. I decided it would be fun to start up a book club which meets once a month. We can chow, chat and choose another book for the next time. All women are welcome meaning that if you read, possess a sense of humor and have absolutely zero drama, you're welcome here. The focus of the group will be mostly fiction unless someone can recommend an entertaining non-fiction book. My …

I decided to start this meetup group because I just keep meeting so many people who genuinely love the BBC television show Doctor Who in the Houston area. We always seem to end up sharing common interests, so I decided to start a group to share my love of the show (past, present, and future) and all things sci-fi with others like myself. If you love Doctor Who, science-fiction television, movies, and books...or if you can just get on board with ridiculous conversation, I want you here. If you dr …

We are free and open to the public.

The feedback received for other groups by this organizer often includes …

This group reads lengthy books (350+ pages) that might otherwise not be feasible for monthly groups. Consequently, we will only meet once per quarter and the meetings will be approximately three hours in length. We're affiliated with Houston Great Books and follow "Shared Inquiry" discussion guidelines.

This is a group for sci-fi and fantasy lovers in the Webster/Clear Lake area high school age and older. It would be great to pick out a book together (possibly through a group poll) of something exciting. There will be an emphasis on fairly new material, with the oldest books being from the 1960s. We'll read the monthly book individually, and then meet together to discuss it and hang out. Even if you haven't read that month's book, if you love sci-fi and fantasy books please come and spend time …

This Pearland bookclub is initiated by an almost-40ish married (but hip!), African American mom who is new to Pearland. There seems to be alot of active (going in opposite directions!) Black women in the area; connecting to discuss a fun book is a great way to make meaningful connections. Let's see!
