Writing NSW hosts active writing groups for different interests and levels of experience. These groups are self-run. Writing NSW provides a free meeting space, tea and coffee-making facilities as well as listing on our website, on the condition all participants are current financial members of Writing NSW.
This directory also includes a range of groups held throughout NSW. You can search by genre or location. Please note you should contact those groups directly if you are interested.
If you are interested in convening your own writing group and would like to add your group to the database, contact us! You may also wish to read our resource sheet, How to Start a Writers’ Group.
Writing NSW also hosts online writing groups. Contact us to find out how you can start your own online writing group using our Zoom account.
Please note writing groups taking place in-person at Writing NSW may be located on the ground or first floors of the building. If you have any accessibility requirements, please let us know when enquiring about joining a group.
We are grateful to the Inner West Council for their ongoing support for our writing groups program.
Due to overwhelming demand, several of our writing groups are currently closed to new members. We hope to open applications shortly. Please get in touch if you have any questions about our writing group program.
