Finding the time

I attended a session about developing the writing craft as an adult and as a teacher. It is to the benefit of the students when the teacher is practicing what they are preaching, so to speak. There was a lot of discussion about what to write and how to share what you write, and the question of when to find the time was posed. Finding the time to write personally and creatively can be difficult when you're spending a large portion of your time either writing professionally or reading to provide feedback on the work of others.

Organizing a teacher writing group is something I have considered for a long time at TPS, knowing we have many talented and passionate writers within the faculty. It would be a time to write together, or share our creative prose or poetry. Would anyone be interested in this? Would anyone be willing to join a group and meet after school once in a while, maybe once a month, to share pieces and discuss writing, maybe receive feedback?
