I've recently been promoted to co-moderator of the Other Worlds Writers Workshop, and we'd be happy to have a few new members.
OWWW is a well-established workshop-style online group which has been around for more than ten years, open to anyone interested in writing original speculative fiction, fantasy, or science fiction. The requirements for membership are fairly low; you have to participate on average twice a month, and participation can be either submitting a story or critiquing one submitted by others. Six crits are required before subbing your first story, but after that it's just the two-something-per-month minimum. The stories people write range from a few thousand words to entire novels of 200K or more (you get extra credit for subbing or critting a novel, of course!), and run the gamut from hard SF to steampunk to high fantasy to time travel to just plain weird. In addition to the writing experience, it's a great place to ask for/offer advice about everything from potential markets to medieval currency to the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow.
Check out the OWWW website for more information; if you're interested you can join via the OWWW Yahoo Group. I know some of you dabble in original fiction and we'd love to have you!
