Midwest Writers/Readers

This group has become officially dormant. It happens. If you want to revive this group, or create a new group on the same topic, see this page.

A group for writers and/or readers who live in or hail from the Midwest or enjoy reading books based in the Midwest. Announce book publications, projects, readings, and other events. Share Midwestern books, both old favorites and new discoveries. Discuss what it means to be a Midwestern writer and/or if Midwestern literature has a style and common themes all its own.
