The Writers Initiative

 
 
 

Hi all,

This is open reading will be held at the Barbican in London. I will provide exact meeting location to attendees and how to get there near the time of the event.

***

Join us in a friendly atmosphere for a chance to read out your written work - from your short stories to part of your novel, or any fictional/non-fictional work you would like to share. Each reading will be followed by constructive feedback and thoughts from fellow attendees.

• This session is an excellent opportunity to gauge feedback on your work and learn where you can improve.
• Each reading will have a time limit of up to 10 minutes max in length. (There will be a subtle alarm sound at the end of 10 mins to help keep the session moving forward in good time).
• Please note there isn't any option to share you writing on a screen for others to read - as there is with the online meetings.
• For the attendees who wish to read their work, please just attend and volunteer at the time. We will try and accommodate as many readings as possible.

If you wish, please also feel free to just come along to listen and provide constructive feedback.
