What do we do?

Participants read from their own work, either a poem, short story or extract from a novel or play and then receive feedback from the group.  The emphasis in the workshop is on constructive feedback.  Participants are welcome to attend without reading themselves but you'll have much more fun if you read yourself. A fee of €5 per person (€3 concessions) is charged to cover costs. The fee for the prose meetings is €7 (€5)

Where do we meet?

7.30 pm to 10.00 pm at Christ Church in centre of Rathgar Village. For more information please contact James Conway on 086 - 40255 78.

When do we meet?

  • We are looking forward to seeing everyone back at the workshops in September after the summer break.
  • General meetings are held every second Thursday.
  • Prose only meetings on Mondays.
  • We are also having six creative writing workshops in October.
