WRITING GROUPS
Professional
The Original Writers Group
Free your imagination.
Now online, the Original Writers Group meets every Tuesday evening on Zoom from 7 to 9 pm GMT.
We have many members: poets, novelists, playwrights, scriptwriters, historians, philosophers. It is a rich mix and makes a lively evening. Bring your work, whether these are short stories, poems, essays or just ideas and join us for an evening of chatting, sharing, planning, commiserating, pontificating - and all things about writing. This is the perfect place to workshop your writing.
Even if you are just starting out and are just interested in writing, come along and experience the evening. As sometimes the best motivation to write is to hear how others got there before you.
Occasionally writers ask if they can read from their published work. This doesn't work for us as part of the enjoyment for listeners is in giving feedback. A published book is like a word carved in stone. There is nothing we can say. And that, as they say, is most disappointing. So we stick to work in progress, whether that is a first or tenth draft. That's when the group works best- both for the writer and the listener.

Writers of Whitstable
Writers Of Whitstable is a friendly writing group, with the serious aim of helping its members become better writers. We're a feedback group, so writers share stories or novel chapters a week before the meeting. When we meet we discuss the work and share thoughts and suggestions for how to improve the story in the next draft. We meet at a local pub in Whitstable, the beautiful seaside town in Kent.

I run writing events to help local writers gain support on their journey to publication. WriterLink is a really effective way to promote festivals, author events and talks to a keen community of writers. It links writers who want to learn about their craft to professionals who can help.

Writing retreats, courses and group meetings have all helped me to become a better writer. I think everyone should try a writing group, and WriterLink helps people find a group in their area.

My writing group meets monthly and we share chapters of our work in progress. It's useful to get feedback on my story and take notes for the next draft. Meeting regularly means I make time for my writing as there's a deadline to get things done. I feel without the group, my writing could "wither on the vine."

I've been organising a popular writers critique group for years using email. It took a lot of work to handle the monthly submissions, not to mention informing new people about the group and keeping track of who's attending or taking a break. WriterLink makes it easy to run a group like mine.

My writing group is invaluable for providing the kick I need to get me writing. I enjoy the stimulus of discussing projects and discovering things that the author may well have overlooked.

I really enjoy attending my writing group. I’ve been able to grow my confidence and share the highs and lows of the craft with understanding people. It provides a safe forum to give and receive constructive feedback.
