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.


To see more of Sarah's work, please visit her website at: http://www.sarahbartrum.com

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!

Next meeting

17th December is our last meeting before the winter festivities.  Get ready, because it's almost here!

And as usual, if you want to pass on any interesting information, or have a suggestion, or care to share what you'd like to find in a group like ours, please drop us a line.

See you soon.

Upcoming Events

If you see a post here with this title, expect information about things happening around here related to writing and authors. Robert has just passed on this info about something interesting:

There's a Creative Writing Workshop day at Exeter Library on 21st November, 10am-4pm. The tutor will be Chris Simms and it is focused on sports writing, but I'm sure it can be of use for any attendants. The price is £5 and the contact number is 01392 384218.
