Like, do I get a badge?Not really. Though there is a community of WriteClubbers who regularly come to workshops both online and in real life.WriteCluboffers workshops to help you get words down on the page, to help you deal with procrastination and to get feedback on your work.What if I haven't written anything before?Well, that's probably not true - we've all written stuff at some point. Basically we're here to create a space for you to get words out. It doesn't matter where you are with your writing. Perhaps you're half way through a second novel. Perhaps you haven't written more than a shopping list in years. Wherever you're at, we'll have a session to suit you.I really want to work one-to-one rather than in a group. Can I do that?Sure. Pop us an email at hellowriteclub@gmail.com and we'll arrange a time to chat about our mentoring packages.Who leads the sessions?Workshops are mostly led by WriteClubber-in-chief, Alison Powell.
