FAQ
Do I need to RSVP?
Nope! Just show up :) We’ll be there!
Is it okay if I come alone?
You’re not alone, you’ll have us ;) but yes, totally fine!
What if I’m [shy/awkward/quiet/neurodivergent/etc]?
Welcome to the club lol.
Do I have to introduce myself?
Yes please! But you can come prepared! We always ask:
- your name
- your preferred pronouns
- what writing project you’re working on OR what kinds of things you like to write
I’m not currently working on a writing project! Can I still come?
YES! You have the soul of a writer, whether or not you’re writing. Most of us cycle through phases of writing/not writing. It's totally normal!
I write [insert genre here]. Is this group for me?
Yes, we welcome all genres of writing: poetry, short stories, fantasy, romance, sci-fi, essays, journal/diary, memoirs, non-fiction, screenplays, blogs, really long text messages to your besties, love letters you’ll never send. Did I already mention about having the soul of a writer?
Do I have to share my work?
Sapphic Writers Circle's primary focus is on community-building. Sharing recent work, workshops, and zine submissions are all optional. You’re always welcome to come hang out, listen, participate in the discussion, or just see what the group is like.
How many people usually attend?
Usually between 6-10 sapphic writers.
What if I have more questions that aren’t listed in your incredibly thorough FAQ?
DM me on IG :)
