  1. Hi there,

    I live in the UK.

    I am interested in starting a Zoom writers group.

    Do you have any hints and tips?

    Kind regards,

    Alex Frew B.A.

    Alex —

    I used MeetUp to host mine, to make it easy for people to find it.

    Other people use Facebook or other social media.

    But if you already have the people for the group, then you don’t need any of that.

    All you really need is a Zoom account that lets you do longer meetings (unless your group meets for very short time periods).

    The free meetings can last 40 minutes:

    But what you can do is have a meeting for 30 minutes, take a 10-minute break, and have another meeting, etc…

    That would be a pain, though.

    Their basic premium plan is $15 a month.

    That means a meeting can last up to 30 hours.

    Good luck!
