Writers, learn more about writing fiction well through our constructive feedback, comradery and lively discussion. You'll be amazed at what you can learn by listening, and sharing your own words once you feel ready. No pressure. In our regular feedback workshops, we have three writers sharing a sample of their writing for immediate feedback, advice and encouragement. Critique is led and moderated by your host Lisa Goll. Listening to the writing of others and the feedback their piece receives on the night is how we learn. We've been running these sessions since 2010 and there's a reason they fill up so fast! Usually, our workshops are limited to a group of 15 writers in total. Three reading; the rest listening, commenting and giving feedback. For people reading, pieces must be **3,500 words or less** as you'll have about 45mins for reading and discussion on your excerpt from around the table. Most people bring 3,500 words from their novel or a short story of all genres and styles. If you'd like to read, please **post a comment below**. ***You must have booked your place before making a request to read.*** If you are reading, **please bring enough printed copies (at least 10)** of your pages so members can make additional feedback/editing notes for you during the reading. All copies will be returned to you after the feedback has concluded. New members are always welcome in these groups. Most people come along to a few sessions before offering feedback, commenting or requesting to read but it's up to you. If you want to read right away, great, but if you want to come along and see how we roll first, that makes sense too. Again, you'll be surprised by how much you can learn from others by listening to the pieces and their feedback. After the workshop, most of us head to the bar for a social drink or two and extended conversation about the highs and woes of writing. **TICKETS:** £15.00 and please follow the steps to pay via PayPal when you RSVP. Ticket price pays for workshop fees, planning, hosting and organising which involve time and effort. A community of 4,500+ writers takes time to manage. PLEASE NOTE: Refunds or credits will only be provided if the workshop is cancelled by us. We cannot offer refunds or credit for another session if you decide not to attend on the day. **Please change your RSVP if you no longer plan to attend.** We often have people on the waiting list and we'd hate for others to miss out. Location: **The Sutton Arms EC1,** 6 Carthusian St, Barbican, London EC1M 6EB. Closest stations are Barbican, Farringdon and Moorgate.

Have you ever wanted to try stand up? Learn some comedy techniques? Do you want to have a life changing experience which will dramatically change your confidence, make you funnier and more attractive? Or want to laugh a lot and have fun? This course is Ideal for wellbeing, confidence building and looking at life in a lighter way. Do not worry that you are not creative. Many comedy techniques require NO creativity at all. Also do not worry if you are not the loud expressive one in the group. Comedy is about your own personal view of the world not necessarily performance based expression. Discover your funny bone at our hugely popular comedy writing course with BBC-featured coach, TV actor and comedian **Fun, lively 5-week sit-down comedy course at the charming Chez Nous Café in Belsize Park.** Led by Bentley Browning: TV actor, comedian and professional David Cameron lookalike, seen on ITV’s *The Hack*. Other credits include *The Last Leg*, *The Alan Titchmarsh Show* and *Take Me Out*. This course is designed to help you discover your authentic comic voice - even if you’ve never written a joke or performed before. A relaxed venue, great coffee and cakes and plenty of laughs - the perfect setting to gently ease into comedy. **This is a writing-only course:** there’s no performing during the sessions, so you can focus on learning without pressure. All stage time is saved for the (optional) grand finale showcase at the legendary Washington Pub. **Over five weeks you’ll:** • Learn the basics of stand-up in a fun, supportive environment • Try simple, guided comedy writing exercises (no experience needed) • Discover your own style and what makes you funny • Get friendly, gentle, constructive feedback • Build confidence step by step, at your own pace • Work towards a relaxed, friendly showcase at the Washington Pub This isn’t just another class — it’s a unique experience with an accomplished comedy coach and quite possibly the most fun you’ll have on a Monday night. You’ll finish with your own material, a clearer sense of your comedic voice, and — if you choose to perform — the thrill of trying it out in front of a live audience. **Perfect for absolute beginners, curious first-timers and comedy fans.** More experienced comedians wanting a refresher are welcome too. **COURSE DETAILS** Dates: Mondays – 13 April, 20 April , 27 April, 4 May, 11 May Time: 7.00 – 8.45pm Venue: Chez Nous Café, 157 Haverstock Hill, London NW3 4QT Showcase: Sunday 24 May at The Washington Pub, Belsize Park **ONLY 10 PLACES AVAILABLE - ADVANCE BOOKING ESSENTIAL.** www.roxcomedy.com **Cost** The cost of this 5 week course with your own showcase gig is £165 ONLY!(Early Bird Price at moment will increase). We will need a £50 deposit to hold your place here: https://buy.stripe.com/7sIaF75ly91a4De7sB With remaining money to be paid on the day of the course. We only have so many slots for the course so RSVP and pay deposit to grab your spot I (Chris Murphy - organiser of the Meetp Group) have done a few times over the years (first did it 8 years ago), it really helped transform my life, confidence, start public speaking and is the most fun course i've ever done, so highly recommend :)! Hopefully see you there Chris

The topic for April is "Water" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
