The Writing Group

Itinerary
People are welcome starting at 6 o'clock, and you can come and meet other writers, enjoy a happy hour, socialize and hang out as you like until 7 when we will start readings.

At 7 o'clock we formally get together as a group to listen to readings from those looking for feedback.

• We do not select readers based on order of arrival or a sign-up sheet, so if you have work until late but still want to come and read, you can!
• Each reader gets five (5) minutes to read, so please select a section of work which is appropriate for that time limit.
• We welcome narrative prose (fiction and non-fiction), poetry, and scripts (be they for screen or stage), so long as it is writing that you're serious about.
• We'll then spend another five (5) minutes in discussion. This is time for the listeners to provide feedback on the reading and discussing the craft in general. We welcome (and encourage) constructive criticism, so long as it is done with respect. This is just as important as the reading, and is done as an open conversation not lead by the reader or the host, so no hand raising required!
• We try to get to as many people who want to read as we can, so if there are a lot of attendees we will be very strict on time.
• We take a short break at 8 o'clock .

At 9 o'clock we finish readings and start our formal social hour. Meet new friends, connect with old ones, exchange longer works for review, or just let loose.
