History Never Repeats

We are a monthly writing group for writers of historical fiction. The group aims to provide a quiet space for writing with time set aside to share work, provide constructive feedback, share tips and discuss the trials and tribulations of writing about the past. We aim to motivate through regular meetings and a buddy system of accountability to keep you going in between. You are welcome whether you love history and want to get into fiction or love fiction and want to get into history – or both! Ideally you have a manuscript well on the way, are actively working towards writing a novel or, at least, have a solid idea and plot line. Open to all levels, our principles are mutual respect, encouragement and honest critique. Meetings occur the last Monday of the month.

Memoir Writing

A supportive and mutually-encouraging group of intermediate level writers who are working on a memoir or life stories that they would like to bring to a publishable standard. We hope to also cover how to write a submission to a publisher, research publishers, editors, literary agents, etc. Our group purpose is to sensitively critique each other’s work with pieces sent via email in advance of the meeting, ensure a safe space for writers through confidentiality, and foster a respectful and supportive group process.
