The writing community of the Hypergrid
********************
A writing community? Yes. Storytellers get together to share what they know about story-telling, developing media, social support for developing a story, producing a story in various media, and marketing a production.
- Well established group of writers in virtual worlds: Metaverse Authors
- That is a Google+ community. So you don't have to be in a virtual world to join it.
- You can find out what they do by chatting with others in the community.
- If you want to enter the virtual world and take part in their activities,
- you can get help from others in the group.

Metaverse Authors
We're a community of authors who use the metaverse for inspiration, promotion, and as a tool to explore the future of storytelling. You don't have to be an author or metaverse citizen to join but we ask that conversation focus on storytelling across present and developing media. That means poets, artists, musicians, photographers, machinima and transmedia artists all have a place here
