Welcome to the Newcastle University Creative Writing society!
Hi everyone!
I was actually writing this at our first Writer’s Date, at Central Bean, on one of their very comfy sofas. We hold these tea/coffee meetings on the last Saturday of every month, (although November's will be on the third week) so make sure you pop along to our next one! We’ve had a very busy October, from writing sessions to workshops, but we’ve got an even busier month to come. November, to many people, means sleepless nights, endless refreshing of word counts, and occasionally shouting at computer screens. In other words, National Novel Writing Month is upon us! To celebrate, and to help those of you who are going for that golden prize of 50,000 words, we’re hosting lots of events, such as write-ins at the Robinson library (our first one is tomorrow, Saturday 5th from 7 'til 7!) and casual socials where you can chat to others about your ideas. There’s also going to be a NaNo awards ceremony at the end of the month to celebrate individual achievements, and we’ll be going for a fun restaurant social afterwards. But don’t worry if you’re not going to be doing NaNoWriMo – these events are welcome for everyone, and we’ll still be hosting the usual writing sessions every week. Remember to check our Facebook (/nclwriting) for events and which rooms we’ll be in for them! Happy writing! Tilly
