Hi all!
We have two different types of meetings and take it week about with each one. The first is about our own writing. We all try to bring a bit of our own work, read it out and have a good chat about it. The second group is about stuff that we like. At that group we bring someone else's writing, read that out and discuss it. The idea of both meetings is that by helping each other we can all become better writers.
Meetings take place at 7pm on a Tuesday at The Waverley Bar which is just off The Royal Mile (High Street) in Edinburgh.
If any of that sounds good to you then please RSVP for the meetup you fancy and come along. Oh,....and please don't feel intimidated about reading something. If you'd just like to listen then that's great too. Hopefully see you along at a meetup soon!:-)
Cheers
Andrew

“I feel I have to resurrect my creativity (buried in amongst 20 odd years of medical facts) and enter a fictitious world.....oh, the pub is real? Right see you all there....”

“I am always writing something! Or rather writing and not having sufficient courage to even submit it to a magazine . So this might just be the best bet, let others tell me what they think.”

“I've almost finished the second draft of my novel, and I'm hoping that meeting other writers will give me the inspiration to get a completed manuscript before my characters give up in disgust and go and bother someone else.”

What members are saying
“ Welcoming group for writers and for those of us just getting started. ”
“ It really is a great resource for any wannabe writer. For the first time I was given some feed back on something I have written that was honest and not just academic. ...
