Greenacre Writers Groups

Greenacre Writers have four groups:
Fiction Writers Group meet every 6 weeks on a Tuesday. 
The format involves selected members’ work sent to fellow members for critiquing and feedback at the following meeting. We provide guidelines for feedback. We do not carry out writing exercises at meetings. Membership requires a commitment and regular attendance (ie: you should expect to attend the majority of meetings.) 
Finish that Novel group meets the third Monday monthly.
The FTN2 group is for writers currently working on novels, autobiography or memoir. The format involves selected members’ work sent to fellow members for critiquing and feedback at the following meeting. We provide guidelines for feedback. We do not carry out writing exercises at meetings. Membership requires a commitment and regular attendance (ie: you should expect to attend the majority of meetings.) 
Memoir Course starts in September 2016
What's the difference between a memoir and an autobiography? Let's start with that question,  where so much confusion lies. Now get this clear.  A MEMOIR is a part of your life.  An autobiography is the whole thing, the whole life.  OK.  Got that now?  Let's move on. 
Anna Meryt will be running a Memoir Course as part of Greenacre Writers
There’ll be seven 1.5 hour sessions, the venue will be in North London and the cost for the entire course will be £70 (payable in advance for the course, (concessions price available on request).
You've got a story only you can tell.
Novel Focus Group starts in October 2016
Allen Ashley has been successfully running a Novel Focus Group on behalf of Greenacre Writers since October 2015. The current round of sessions concludes in July. Allen is keen to take on a new cohort of would-be novelists for the next academic year, starting October 2016. Subjects covered will include:  Novel planning, Structure, First pages and chapters, Characterisation, Location, Dialogue, Pacing, Style and Editing techniques. If you are serious about settling into writing your novel, this is the course for you.
