Meetings will be varied and will include talks by authors, discussion, workshops and writing critique sessions. Please subscribe to the blog to be informed of the details of each meeting.
We have had some amazing success stories and have been proud to see members get published. The group is always open to new writers, so come and join us for a mixture of great talks and feedback sessions.
There is a membership charge of £30 per year to cover our costs. Membership allows you to come to all meetings for free. If you are not a member you can still attend the meetings but there is an entry charge of £3.
