Creative Writing
Leader | Jane G. |
Meeting pattern | 2nd Friday, 10am |
Venue | Not currently meeting face-to-face |
We normally meet on the second Friday of the month and write for pleasure and interest. We share what we have written for that month’s task and also critique each other’s work in a constructive manner. Monthly tasks are set a few months ahead, but we are very flexible and if someone wishes to share something quite different, then that is fine too. Under the current situation we are unable to meet face to face so some of us are continuing to submit our monthly topics via email. These are then shared with the group via email and comments also made via email. This, at least, keeps us in touch, keeps us busy and keeps the brain cells ticking over.
Members frequently enter competitions such as the Wells Festival of Literature (a member won the Children’s Story prize in 2019), the Mid-Somerset Festival (several members have had several successes in all classes) and various other local competitions.
We look forward to being able to meet up again in person at some point in the future. There is currently a Waiting List for new members.
