Running a Writers Circle

Running A Writers' Circle

Creative Writing
Simon Whaley

Based on the author's many years' experience as chairman of a writers' circle, this book will guide you through the process of running your own. It will help you decide how to structure your group, the meetings, where to advertise for members, run competitions, and even set up a website. Everything to get you up and running. And writing. For that is after all, the endgame. Running a Writers' Circle doesn't just end after the first meeting. There are long-term goals and plans to be set, and you've got to keep your members coming back for more.

Reviews:

"Perhaps you would like to start a writers' circle in your own area, but you are not sure how to go about it. Or maybe you have just been appointed chairman of your local circle, but are undecided about the best way to run the meetings and to take the circle forward. Either way you will find Simon Whaley's book invaluable." Writer's News

"Running A Writers' Circle is an elegantly produced book ... the aim is to provide a comprehensive self-help book that will enable people with little or no experience to set up and run a successful writers' circle. At first I thought that it may be overly detailed, stating the obvious and not allowing for ordinary commonsense but on careful reading I was completely won over by the attention to detail and the sure-fire way this book helps the novice to avoid unnecessary pitfalls."
