This is a reboot of a book club I started 3 years ago for women of all ages and backgrounds to read a variety of books. Each member has a chance to present a book they want to read. All genres are welcome. If it is your book, you are in charge of the discussion and choosing where we meet for discussion. In the past, we've met at restaurants, but can meet at someone's home, restaurant, or other venue in the greater Danbury area. We'll meet the 4th Thursday of every month at 7 PM. Meetups are limi …

Specifically, I wanted to meet readers and gamers who were a bit more local to me. In general, I wanted to create a casual venue for fun, interesting, and knowledgeable people to interact.

After this group was begun by another organizer, I took over in the spring of 2012 so that a group of individuals who enjoy reading can share ideas. It's interesting to hear different view points from the group about the people's/character's personalities, the settings, and the topics in general. We have had some great discussions about the author's craft. In the past we have drifted toward biographies; any titles and suggestions from the group are welcome!  Debbie Parker

Sick of Baby Einstein? Looking for a little bit of adult conversation? Enjoy reading? Then this Meetup group is for you. I am a former high school English teacher who has decided to leave the school classroom for a bit to stay home. I enjoy being home, but I found I really missed talking about books with people. That was the initial impetus for starting the group. I also needed to read something more advanced than Dr. Seuss to ward off brain atrophy (ha ha). We read everything from ficti …

This group offers a forum for writers to learn and exchange practical information they need to get published. Members gather to ask questions and give advice about every stage of the publishing process, from writing a manuscript to querying an agent to negotiating a contract. While there are many groups for writers out there, most focus exclusively on the craft of writing, while failing to address the practical information that publishers really care about and that can make or break a book deal. …

Once upon a last week, two recent graduates decided they wanted to read something other than romance novels for a change (or not...). So we're starting this group in hopes of finding other people with a passion for reading, and a willingness to embark upon a most ambitious quest: to read as many of the "top 100 novels" as we possible can. However we don't want to limit ourselves to just those - we hope to explore, examine, and be entertained by all different types of genres. There is no limi …
