This is a group for readers who love "The New Yorker." We'll get together and discuss articles and follow wherever the conversation takes us. Should be a great way to connect to like-minded folks for great discussions about the arts, politics, and interesting people and places.

Overview Most of the time, WriteByNight is hard at work providing customized writers' services to novices and professionals alike. But on select days and times, we draw the shades, turn off our ringers and open our doors to writers on the prowl for a quiet, comfy haven where they can write, read, collaborate or just kick back and dream. We’ve got a library, writing prompts, coffee and free Wi-Fi. What more could a writer ask for? Objective Write Here allows you to carve out much-needed writing …

What About The Books? T …

We meet to discuss nonfiction books in a wide variety of genres--science, history, memoir, politics, and beyond! Members can suggest books at any time and we'll vote on three options a month before each meeting.

The location varies from meeting to meeting and venue ideas are always welcome! Books we've previously read: June 2013 - "There's a Word for It: The Explos …

The South Austin Book Club for Women was founded one year ago. We are about reading great books that interest us. In the past year the group has read ten books, many of which have expanded our individual interests and tastes.

The group would like to add new members to increase our ranks and keep the discussions robust. At the same time, we wish to keep the group intim …

The Finnegans Wake Reading Group of Austin is a monthly get-together to dive into the depths of James Joyce's greatest, weirdest, and most notorious masterpiece. We meet once a month (usually Tuesdays) at the Twin Oaks Library on the corner of Mary and 5th St in South Austin. The process is to take turns reading aloud from the text which allows its musicality to flow forth, then we all discuss our interpretations and the many meanings contained within the selection we've read. We read about 2 …

This is a group for individuals interested in reading science related topics and lively discussions. We also thought we'd read a little sci fi now and then as science is fueled by imagination, isn't it? We started this group to socialize and meet fellow book lovers.

We enjoy reading for the fun of it, and would love to check out new books with other fun readers. We will have regular book club meetings, and also throw in some fun social events. We look forward to meetin …

We are a group of writers of crime fiction, both short story and book length. We are all seriously writing for publication and most of us have been writing for many years. Our goals as a group are to polish our manuscripts before sending them to our agents or editors; keep the pages flowing; improve our craft, especially by learning from each others' strengths; and above all, support each others' goals as writers. We are keen and attentive readers, but we are also congenial and considerate. No m …
