Hi All,

Next meeting is Thursday at the normal time of 7.30 p.m (if you can drag yourself away from the Olympics!)

We will be at the White Hart Hotel in a quiet corner of the bar or upstairs with the skeleton.

Usual format: manuscript review and general catchup.

Hope to see you there!

All - a quick heads up for our summer social on the 23rd August. Not sure of the venue yet - likely to be a restaurant in St Albans but will update you as soon as we know.

In any case save the date and email us if you are interested in coming along.

Hope to see you there!

Hi All,

Hope you are enjoying our week-long British summer and it doesn't stop you from coming along on Thursday night for our regular meetup.

Ad per usual we will be in the White Hart Hotel from 7.30 p.m.

The usual format of manuscript review (or any work in progress review!) and general catchup.

Hope to see you there!

Words with Jam have launched their short story competitions for this year and revised the format so there are three different competitions with varying word count limits. From what I can see the theme is an open one.

Could well be worth dusting off an old short story from your back catalogue to see if it will fit the criteria.

Good news: there is plenty of time to enter - closing date is end of October.
Bad news: there is an entry fee but it is less than the cost of two glasses of wine.

If you enter - Good Luck!

As 50 Sheds of Grey seems to be very popular at the moment I am sure we are all thinking about spicing up our stories.

This post by Angela Ackerman might well give you some hints on how to work some flirty body language into your work.

Hope it helps!

Point of view can bee tricky. Deep Third or Tight Third? First person or Omniscient Third?

Confused? I often am but here is an interesting post on the use of different points of view in writing from the folks over at i09.

How to write as an omniscient character if you are not actually omniscient yourself


Have a look and hope it is of use!
