As a slight tangent to your discussion, here are links to Brandon Sanderson's BYU lectures on creative writing[1], and other general writing advice[2]
I like that these are not behind some sort of paywall like a "Masterclass" or something.
He also runs an award winning podcast [3] since 2008, which brings forwards famous authors and gets them to share advice on writing.
It's not quite the cozy one-on-one forum style discussion amongst peers that you were wishing for, but if OP is looking for some guidance.
Btw, have you look at the screenwriter's subreddit [4]? I feel they have a much tighter focus on the "writing" aspect, than other general writing related subreddits or forums.
