Links to Writers' Groups and Workshops

I am a member of Codex, an online group for "neopro" writers of speculative fiction.  Members must have sold work at professional level, or graduated from a recognised genre workshop.  Codex is full of energy and enthusiasm, with a lively forum and critiquing system.

I am also a member of Critters, an online workshop for speculative fiction writers.  I recommend Critters to writers who are just starting out, or making their first few sales, but it also has much to offer the more experienced writer.

I regularly attend the Milford UK workshop, held annually in Wales over a week in late summer.  Attendees must have sold at least one story or novel.  The surroundings are beautiful, the company is stimulating, and I definitely recommend this workshop to any writers who can spare a week and can get to Snowdonia.  For more details, read my report on Milford 2005.
