The heart of this project is a focus on the importance of fairy tales as a creative force both in literature and culture. Literary fairy tales can be seen, in terms of genre, to mediate between, on the one hand, folktales, from which they often derive both form and content; and on the other, the more elaborate narratives of full-blown fantasy novels. The Centre will provide a forum where writers and scholars from various disciplines can discuss folk narratives, fairy tales and fantasy works, bot …

I appreciate that the following blurb is quite lengthy/detailed, however it is imperative for all members to read ahead of deciding whether they wish to join the group, and if the group and the way the group is run suits their own personal preferences. Please make sure you read all of it as certain individuals have claimed to do so, yet have then unfortunately later been deleted from the group (usually shortly after they join the group) as it has become apparent that they did not read/take on bo …

10 attendingSharing the Solitude of Writing This group was inspired by the London Writing Together group and is for people in or near Brighton who write or who seriously want to. The format is simple: a host organises a session anywhere comfortable, e.g. in a café or peaceful pub, in their lounge, or maybe in a random nearby village. We then write for 2, 3 or 4 hours straight. We work on our own and set our own targets. What you write is up to you. The whole point is: you are not alone in the creative proce …

The London Literary Salon draws on the Salon tradition of a regular meeting of a committed group of people for the exchange and exploration of ideas. The London Literary Salon (and its Paris counterpart) use the study of a great work of literature as a springboard to consider the wonder of the human experience–in all its raw and dynamic forms. The discussion resembles a seminar style study, but the emphasis is on what each participant brings to the conversation. The works of Joyce and Shakespear …

While we …

This is an opportunity for London writers (novelists, poets, Orwellian journalists) to get together in conducive surroundings to have a drink and to discuss plots, characters, literary techniques, writing styles and methods, and to discuss the styles and writings of novelists we love. As members get to know each other, if they want to share drafts or excerpts of what they're writing that would be great too - hence the title draft soc. With a relaxed setting and a friendly group of people I'm hop …
