9 Bridges is dedicated to supporting writers in all stages of their journey to pursue their craft. In addition to providing peer review and support in the form of critique groups, 9 Bridges gives writers access to a wider community through workshops, events, online forums and the promotion of events that are interesting and benefit our members, whether they are just starting out or have published a dozen best sellers. Our meetings are open and to everyone, and offer opportunities for writers from many diverse communities to come together for the purpose of improving their craft. What all of our members have in common is a love and desire to write. Whenever possible we make these events free to our members and to the general public.
