Sutton Writers is an inclusive organisation that seeks to help and encourage creative writers. Some of our members are published, though many write purely for their own pleasure, and others have joined us to share their writing with others whose opinion they respect and trust.

It’s sometimes difficult to write alone; simply talking to like-minded people can be a help, enabling the writer to see their own way forward.

To join, there is no minimum qualification, no audition – every member is equal, welcomed and encouraged. We meet monthly to hear from speakers across the writing and publishing fields, and we have weekly workshops where members share work in progress for feedback.

“Writing” can encompass so many different aspects of the craft, and we aim to support and encourage creatives no matter their chosen genre or format. Our members have a wide range of writing interests – there are always a few novels of diverse genres, poetry, playwriting, short stories, works of fact or fiction, all at various stages from an idea to the final draft.

A writing group for now, and the future
