Poetry, short stories, plays, novels, history, philosophy, science, not necessarily in that order, classics that are worthy of discussion, current and past, western and non-western, these are the works we discuss. The discussion is what is most important. We discuss these works to enlarge our understanding of the ideas that shape our culture and gain a deeper appreciation for what it means to be human.

… Writers of all levels, media, and genres are welcome, including: short stories, poetry, novels, comic books, graphic novels, screenplays, and research topics. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us at:  http://www.meetup.com/Parents-of-Bay-Area-Teen-Writers/suggestion/   Who do you know in your world that wants to write with power, clarity and ease?

India is a nation of different languages and limiting this group to one language a …

You'll sit down under a mosaic of a Ballerina and sample the refreshment as the other group members trickle in. When everyone …
