wordcentral is a friendly, informal group who meet to read and discuss our work and share information, contacts and news. Writers of all genres are welcome – fiction, plays, poetry, non-fiction – come along and find out what we're like. We meet on the First and Third Thursday of the month from 6pm to 8pm at the St Sidwell's Centre, Exeter.
Note about the meetings
Hello, fellow writers. Just a few lines to let you know that during the autumn we will be using a different room from the usual one for our meetings. The sessions taking place between the 6th October and the 1st December will be held in the Chapel Room of St Sidwells. So, if you come join us during those dates, just get into the very first room you'll find. We're looking forward to meet you!

Happy writing.
