*Writing on the Theme of 'Place'* (online)

• Please note: ABOUT OBTAINING THE LINK FOR TAKING PART IN OUR MEETINGS, PLEASE MESSAGE ME, CAPRICE JACKSON, THE GROUP ORGANISER. IT DOES REQUIRE ANSWERING A FEW QUESTIONS, SO YOU NEED TO ALLOW, IDEALLY, 24 HOURS BEFORE THE MEETING.

As always, welcome to our friendly queer and inclusive writing group! This week we have a different programme to usual. From time-to-time we decide to all write to the same theme. This time the theme is 'Place'. This is how it works:

• After saying hello and intros we all write for 20 minutes on the subject of 'Place'. Any interpretation is possible!
• Everyone who wishes can then read out their piece. This, along with comments, praise, boos, etc. (just joking about 'boos'), typically takes the rest of the evening.

Other Monday evenings our schedule remains as: from 7.30 to 9 saying hi followed by personal writing time and, from 9 to 9.30, discussion and sharing.

The aim of the group is to provide a shared and safe space for people who regard themselves as part of the Queer community to write together. It is intended for you to work on your own writing, whatever form that takes. You can drop in and drop out as you wish.

Very best wishes,

Caprice

The free tours are held on the last Saturday of every month except December and give an amazing insight into the Queer stories, visible or not so visible, existing in many of the exhibits.
