Development

[close] This is a group for fledgling writers, and those authors starting out in their career, to share experiences, discuss literary influences and literary criticism, and seek out others with common cause. This is not meant to be a diverse group but a coherent and cohesive gathering to make contacts and develop a current up-to-date list for writers pursuing their careers to become authors. A leg up, a helping hand, a band of brothers. Browse the book shelf, participate in a poll, get passionate in discussions. However, activists, karens, and propogandists are unwelcome because such behaviour does not fit the group charter or tags. Activists are directed to join a cult or woke guild instead. This group will be curated for content accordingly.

[close] May Book: The One Thing June Book: Find Your Why Are you looking to chat it up with your girlfriends about a beloved Nicholas sparks romance novel? Yes? Then move along, friend… this book club isn’t for you. If you’re looking for a #growgang to learn with, seek inspiration from, and speak vision and life into, then you’ve landed in the right space. Sweatwork attracts members who do just that: sweat and work. Our members strive to reach their business, personal, and health goals: they perform on all cylinders all the time. So why would a SweatWork book club be any less? COVID-19 has changed our lives. But we know our tribe is not using this time to mindlessly scroll Instagram, binge watch The Walking Dead, or schedule water cooler virtual chats about 90 Day Fiancé. Our tribe is getting up to grind - even from home – in pursuit of their goals. Our book club will be fun, sure. But it will also WORK for you. We select books we think will make the extra time the current pandemic has provided pay you in dividends. And even if you’ve picked up more responsibilities and have less time for yourself now (we gotcha homeschooling, full-time remote working, every meal cooking mama), we suggest you MAKE THE TIME. Because if you choose to Netflix and Chill while we #flattenthecurve, be prepared to get left #behindthecurve. SweatWork will provide you with inspiring questions, journal prompts, and thinking points to help you dig into the texts. Then we will convene virtually to discuss with other dynamic, professional, and wellness focused women tactical ways to implement the teachings into our lives and businesses.

[close] People who agree that there is more to life than average! Not afraid to activate the great in their lives by learning to laugh, being pulled while pulling those in the group to higher ground. focused on becoming everything we were created to be and more by turning pages and having conversations that challenge, shape and motivate us to live life to the fullest without regret or remorse. I read to grow, to discover, to become aware and to be enlightened hopefully everyone else here will as well.
