Writing Groups?

Thinking about writing groups. Anyone have any experience with one?

I am starting a closed group this week, something I'm calling "therapeutic writing group" or "healing writing group." Still working it out. There will just be three of us (at the mo). I am interested to see how the process works.

I have also purchased three books about writing groups. I am intrigued, and may start another one, along the lines of a creative writing group.

Something may be brewing...I'll try to keep you posted.
