Working in Brighton, I’ve always enjoyed the variety and number of networking events and casual meet-ups that are available. But wherever I go, I rarely meet other writers.
So, after chatting to Ellen about it, we decided to set something up.
Here’s the event description from Upcoming:
Do you write for a living? If you’re a professional writer, or someone who wants to be a professional writer (like a journalist, copywriter, novelist, poet, travel writer, proofreader or anything else) or just someone who would like to meet writers, come along!
WriteClub is a very relaxed, informal association that consists of drinking coffee and chatting. You can come along to get ideas or support, to find inspiration or tips or to just get away from the laptop and meet other writers working in your area.
What do you need? Nothing. Just yourself and some change for a coffee.

So Ellen and I will be in Cafe Delice, 24 North Road, on Tuesday 29 September at 8:30 (am). The meeting will last as long as it lasts, but feel free to drop in and leave whenever it’s convenient.
We hope to see you there!
[Update – WriteClub – the networking meet-ups for writers and non-writers alike, now has a website]
Hey Leif,
Did this happen? I wandered past Delice this morning at about 8.55 and nobody was inside and they were only just opening…
