The Porch House at 2811 Dogwood Pl., Nashville, TN 37204

Join us for a laid-back afternoon of inspiration and connection with fellow romance writers! Whether you're crafting swoon-worthy love stories, steamy page-turners, or heartfelt emotional journeys, these meetups provide a welcoming space for romance writers of all stages and experience levels. We'll share tips, discuss challenges, and dive into the unique elements of writing romance—from creating compelling characters and dynamic tension to navigating the ever-evolving publishing world. Bring your ideas, questions, and enthusiasm, and leave with new insights and fresh inspiration for your next love story.

Romance Writers meetups are facilitated by Porch instructor Sara Holifield. Sara Holifield writes under the pen name Avalon Griffin and is the author of the paranormal fantasy romance Unbound by Shadows. When not writing, she can be found traveling the globe in search of kitschy roadside attractions, off-beat museums, and cryptozoology legends. She lives in Nashville, Tennessee, with her husband and a crew of formerly feral cats.

These affinity group meetups are free to attend, but we compensate our facilitators to ensure a high-quality experience and a safe, welcoming space. If you’re able, please consider making a donation of $10–$30 at this link to help us sustain these valuable programs at The Porch.
