✍️ ──── A non-profit social enterprise since 2023, we’ve supported hundreds of writers, from those writing for pleasure or healing to those whose ambition is to write for an audience. Because there is no one way to write or to be a writer, our programme lets you choose your own adventure and get what you need for your journey, be it support and championing, coaching, constructive critique, idea generation, craft skills, or simply a cup of tea and someone to say, ‘Keep going; you’re doing great’. There is space for all of it here. The Writers Workshop is not only a place but also a community comprising occasional dabblers, keen hobbyists, and committed authors. We know that, to some people (even our friends and family, perhaps), our world of words might seem ‘weird’, but at the Workshop, weird is always wonderful. So, there’s no worry about fitting in – you’re in the right place. ✍️──── WHAT WE OFFER‼️ 📚Discounts on ALL workshop & events, new discounts from selected partners (including 10% off at Juno Books) and special early bird offers (such as for Writers Day 2026). 📚More opportunities to get together (for free!), including monthly socials, member book launches and online socials. 📚Structured writing retreats, online and in-person, to help you focus on your writing. 📚 Weekly member bulletin filled with writing inspiration, submission opportunities, member deals and offers and a heads up on new events. 📚New members area on our website, with writing resources, videos and content from our associates and more. Special discounts on our Associate’s services, member only competitions and prize draws here too. You don't need to be a member to be able to join our workshops and events, but you may miss out on these amazing deals! 📎LINK IN BIO TO JOIN 📎LINK IN BIO FOR WORKSHOPS AND EVENT #writingcommunity #ukwriters #writersofinstagram #authors #authorsofig

I'm excited to be working with @crone_club_reclaiming_crone this summer to put on a few special writing events for 'women of a certain age' culminating in our special edition Sounds About Write on Thursday 9th July. To get people performance-ready, there are two upcoming workshops. Get Writing is a space to generate ideas for new writing. Page and Stage is your chance to practise sharing your work. Open to any (self-defined) mid-life or older women who would like to give writing a go for the first time, or who would like to share their words in a friendly, welcoming space. Men and young women welcome to listen at the open mic but open mic slots are reserved for crones or crones in training. Tickets via @the.writersworkshop Eventbrite. #crones #creativewriting

Declutter your mind and explore your emotions with our journalling workshop. Your host, Rachel, will guide you and help you to explore how limitations can support rather than stifle journalling. Experiment with gentle boundaries such as time limits, line limits, repeated prompts, or returning to the same questions.
