ESU Scotland has been running a Creative Writing Group for over 2 years. We meet at 23 Atholl Crescent from
6.00-8.30pm on the first Thursday of
every month. It is open to all adults with an interest in developing their creative writing skills in a friendly
and supportive environment.
Each meeting members write short pieces on a particular theme or bring along pieces that they have worked on at home and receive critical feedback from the group.
Come along to be inspired and share your writing with others over tea and biscuits.
If you are interested in joining a group or would like further details, please
contact Suzanne Ensom at the office.
