Mark, thank you for posting this. I have been reaching out through FB, trying to find local people to write with. The same thing happened to me...the first guy, we wrote a tune that has potential, but he's such a flake I won't hear from him for weeks and he drinks so much he can't remember what he played half the time. If I didn't know guitar at all, we'd be screwed! Then there was another guy...we were jamming, putting a couple of different song ideas together, and he got weird on me (I think he's paranoid delusional).

I'd be interested in knowing the details of how she met legit people and how she organized the musical society. Would she mind me e-mailing her? I have wanted to do something like what she did right here in Cincy. It's a big city and I'm sure there are like-minded individuals, but I just can't seem to find them. I've had more luck here on JPF than I have locally.
