| Venue: | Members' own homes |
We currently meet at each other's homes on the first Thursday of each month, from 10:00 am to 12 noon.
The group’s main aim is to improve as individual writers by sharing written stories/part-stories (up to 500 words), attending literary events and discussing favourite author styles. Each member speaks for 10-15 minutes and the rest of the group provides kind, encouraging feedback.
A shared cloud-based folder is used to store stories and articles of interest which may be helpful to new members.
Our group is very sociable and enthusiastic, always extending a warm welcome to potential members.
Feel free to attend a meeting to try us out by emailing the group contact link above.
