If you enjoy writing but can't attend meetings in order to get feedback on your work, there are many writing resources on the internet that can provide this for you, and a lot of it is FREE.
This list will be periodically updated as we discover more organizations that exist because we, as writers, need and value their services.
1. SILVER PEN: This is an ongoing members workshop, peer review and advice center, which we offer to prospective writers from age 13 and up - registered with IRS as non-profit and who carefully monitor forum and workshop to prevent offence and inane reviews - if your members would be interested. Membership is free and you get your first upload on the house, the rest based on points gleaned from reviews: which are sparing - we're growing - but always valuable.
Advice is available on tap and there are many articles as resources so that writers who want to improve their skill can do so in a friendly atmosphere. They have contests too!
