No degree of separation. No fame. Just writers writing. Authentic. Whimsical. Vulnerable. "It's all true, none of it's true, don't ask." We often spend too much time thinking about writing instread of writing. Our group meets to spend time writing. After we get our coffee, we pick a prompt (phrases, pictures) and a time period of a few minutes (5-10 minutes is normal). For that time period, we write on that prompt, using paper and pen. We then pass the mike around for anyone who wants to read. W …

Meet nearby board game players! Come to a board games Meetup to play old favorites with new friends. And maybe learn some new games, too! All players grown 21+ years are invited! This group is about having fun and making friends just as much as it is about getting together to play various games. Not quite sure how it's going to work yet. I have a small shelf full of games, and people can bring their own favorites as well. For starters, I thought we could meet at my house (SW MPLS) or at a …

This book club may or may not be currently open to new members.  Due to the personal nature of book club discus …

Just like most book clubs, we meet in a local Twin Cities venue on a monthly basis to discuss a selected novel while enjoying good company and drinks.
