The group meets once a month. Each month we have a specific topic around which to build our stories. We usually try to target ourselves to write a piece of around 1,000 words, but it's very flexible and sometimes members choose to write a poem rather than a story, and we've also had a couple of small plays. Alongside that, we occasionally work on limericks which are fun to write and to share.
The group meets on the afternoon of the 4th Thursday monthly at a member’s home. If you are interested in joining us, please email write@madu3a.org
The Creative Writing Group are delighted to give you an opportunity to see what we have been doing over the last couple of years. Some time back, we produced a book of our 'Scribblings' and were rewarded with some lovely comments from our members and encouraged to repeat the process.
Currently, we have three booklets prepared and the first one is ready for you to read online. We are inviting you take a break with a cuppa, sit comfortably and click on the link to read some of the MaD Creative Writing Group 'Scribblings' - Scribblings Book 1. The links in the table of contents on page 2 of the book are live, so you just have to click on one to be taken to the relevant page.
We ask you to bear in mind that, as with so many of our groups, we are enthusiastic amateurs with only one of our group having had work published. We write for our own and each other’s pleasure and are happy to share that with you.
