A harassment-free place

Our meetup is a harassment-free place for everyone, regardless of gender/gender identity, age, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, race, ethnicity, technology choices, or genre preferences. We do not tolerate harassment of meetup participants in any form. 

A positive environment

The purpose of our meetup is to create a positive and supportive environment for creatives. Disruption of this purpose may be grounds for disciplinary action including suspension from group meetings (in-person and online) and removal from online discussion and networking channels.

Go easy on self-promotion

Group participants are welcome to share their accomplishments and activities, but this is not primarily a group for marketing your books, events, and products.

In short: Be nice, don’t be a jerk, and don’t spam!
