NEXT MEETING: Tuesday 23rd April 2019
We meet on the first and third Tuesday of each month from 7:00 to 9:00 in the Bees Knees at the Battersea Arts Centre. There is a small fee of £5 to cover our costs. (Scroll down to the bottom of this page to find directions.) |
Visit our Writing Habit blog where we post a daily writing prompt.
We welcome writers from all walks of life as the more varied your opinions, the richer the workshop experience.
Please do join us. Even if you are just starting out and are just interested in writing, but don't have anything to read, come along and experience the evening. As sometimes the best motivation to write is to hear how others got there before you.
We have many members: poets, novelists, playwrights, scriptwriters, historians, philosophers. It is a rich mix and makes a lively evening. Do bring your work, whether these are short stories, poems, essays or just ideas and join us for an evening of chatting, sharing, planning, commiserating, pontificating - and all things about writing.
This is the perfect place to workshop your writing.
Occasionaly we have writers ask if they can read from their published work. This doesn't really work for us as part of the enjoyment for listeners is in giving feedback. A published book is like a words carved in stone. There is nothing we can say. And that, as they say, is most disappointing. So we tend to stick to work in progress, whether that is a first or tenth draft. That's when the group works best- both for the writer and the listener.
