![]() Programme Story List Links Members Writers' Blog Meetings are held on the first and third Tuesdays of the month at Dancox House Club Room, St Clements Gardens, St Johns, Worcester from 7.30 pm to 9.30pm. If you want to know more about Worcester Writers' Circle, please telephone Sue Round, Secretary 01905 619062. Probably the oldest writers' circle in the country, we have grown from half a dozen enthusiasts in the dark days of the Second World War, to a thriving and productive group of people who share their experiences, successes and pitfalls at each meeting. We have a wide range of writers, some published professionals, some occasionally appearing in magazines, and many newcomers eager to see their name in print. At a normal meeting, we read from our work, sometimes on a theme set for the evening and we offer advice and reactions. A cup of tea and a chat of course, and discussions about markets, successes and rejections. Sometimes we have a speaker from amongst our ranks, or a guestjoining us for the evening. Our interests are wide - stories, Westerns, nostalgia, poetry, biography, roofing and cats have all featured at our meetings. If you can get to Worcester, (that's the one in Worcestershire, England) give us a try. | Meetings for Year 2005The subjects suggested for each meeting are not compulsory, although some members use them as writing exercises. Feel free to bring along whatever you are working on. The Circle reserves the right to alter the programme to accommodate special events or for circumstances beyond their control.
