The Stove Cafe Presents: WRITE!

Welcome to our October WRITE meet-up! Join us at this monthly creative writing workshop with author .

WRITE! is all about letting your imagination guide your hand. In each session we’ll chat about a writing-related topic, then provide prompts and a theme, and the opportunity to write based on the inspiration. It might be a character sketch, or a piece of description or dialogue. The key thing is that it will be your words, and they’d never have been born if you’d stayed at home that night.

Sessions are expertly guided by thought-provoking prompts, offering dedicated time for free-flowing expression. Afterwards, participants have the opportunity to share their creations within supportive groups, receiving valuable tips to enhance their writing skills and boost confidence. Whether you're rediscovering the joy of the creative process or seeking inspiration for your existing project, Write fosters a collaborative and experimental environment. Fuel your next big project with the friendly encouragement and creative energy that defines Write.

This month's theme:

One of the topics in the next session is comic or humorous fiction. Have a look at a funny book or two if you get the chance. No need to read it all - just the opening and a few random places to get an idea of the style. You can look up the plot elsewhere to see what happens if you like. It's fine to bring examples from one of the books or stories, even if it's just a sentence or paragraph that stands out as particularly good or funny!

Open to: everyone! It doesn’t matter whether you’ve never written anything before, or if you’re an established author looking for a brief shot of espresso creativity. It’s not a course, so you can attend any or all sessions, as you wish.

So come along. We’ll provide the inspiration and a supportive group of new friends. All you need to do is bring your pen*, engage your heid, and write!

(* Of course it's fine to bring a laptop or gadget instead of pen and paper: words are words, whatever the medium!)

The Stove Cafe will be serving drinks and nibbles from 6:30pm - 7pm
