What we’re about

Calling all poets, authors, screenwriters, playwrights, and songwriters! It doesn't matter what your experience is or how much writing you do, this is the group for you.

We are a group of volunteers who love the

Read-Out Sessions: We host weekly read-out sessions which allow you to bring along your work for constructive feedback, or sit back and be inspired by the advice of others.

Workshops & Writing Exercise Sessions: We host workshops on various topics; from story structure to character development, and also writing session events which include timed flash fiction challenges.

This site is in connection with [Orton.io](http://www.orton.io), a writing platform that was developed through starting this group. You can share your work, receive feedback, be part of a writing community and (coming soon) be able to play flash fiction games that get your creative juices flowing.

Don't forget to join our Facebook Group, where we keep our members up to date on our sessions: www.facebook.com/groups/manchesterwriting/

For any queries, you can message us directly via this group or email Beth at Beth@Orton.io

A big thanks to Cheryl, Oli, Mel, and Kenzie who are organisers for the group and keep it running.
