We meet on the First and Third Thursday of the month from 6pm to 8pm at the St Sidwell's Centre, Exeter.
Forensic Science course for free!
The University of Strathclyde is offering an online Introduction to Forensic Science course. So, if you like to write detective stories, police procedure stuff, or similar, and want to make sure that your depictions are true to life, follow the link and take a look. It covers an interesting range of evidence types, and it's bound to be very interesting. But hurry up if you want to sign up, because the course starts on the 18th of April!
New Year, New Projects
Hello again! Looking forward to next meeting? So are we! It's going to be on Thursday 18th and we expect to have a lot of fun as usual. We are also planning something exciting... our very first anthology as a collective of authors. It is very early still to give concrete details, but we want it to be a collection of short stories by our regular attendants, so it will contain a handsome variety of works. To learn more, keep an eye on the blog. Or better, come and join us.
Meanwhile, our colleague Sarah Bartrum has published her latest novel, called Keep Them Safe, a gripping thriller that you'll surely appreciate and which is available through Amazon.

Season's Greetings!
We have finished this year's lot with the satisfaction of having tried new things in our meetings and the hope to make them more exciting and useful every time. New people have joined us and are contributing in a very positive way to the group's development. Next year we hope to grow more, both in number and in contents, and to this I'd like to toast.
Also, look at this! The beautiful people of St Sidwell's Community Centre, where we have our headquarters, have given us a Christmas card portraying the lovely glasswork that you can find in the building. If you visit, don't forget to pop in to the chapel to admire the whole lot.
A big thank you to the volunteers of St Sidwell's, for the card and especially for the great work they do there every day.
Our next meeting will be next year, which is closer than it looks. If you are steaming in your creative fumes and would like to let some off, share your progress, exchange positive feedback and have a good time, please do not hesitate to come around. See you on the 7th of January.
Have a great Christmas and have lots of fun. And Happy New Year 2016!
