Writing Groups: Open Genre
Back to all writing groupsWomen Writers’ Network
We have been meeting – and supporting and encouraging women writers – for nearly thirty years. We are open to all genres of writing: prose, poetry, fiction, non-fiction, children’s books, plays and screen writing. Some members are striving to be published, many just enjoy writing and providing feedback on others’ work. Our aim is to provide constructive feedback in a supportive environment, fostering all levels of writing. We meet weekly but attendance is flexible – there are usually eight to twelve women at any session. We focus on workshopping each others’ work in a friendly and respectful but rigorous way.

Writestuff
A group that spends time writing, after giving each other word prompts. We then share our work. It doesn’t matter how experienced you are as a writer, so long as you are interested in getting started with writing and willing to encourage other members of the group. Our purpose is to encourage writing, in whatever genre and style members choose, and to encourage publication of members’ writing.

Young Writers Group
We are a group of writers in our twenties working towards publication and developing writing careers. Members can bring writing of any genre and form. We meet once a month in person and via Zoom. We offer a supportive and encouraging atmosphere for young writers to workshop their pieces and hone their craft.
