Launchpad Creative Writing group

Launchpad Creative Writing group Launchpad Writing Group is a relaxed and informal group. We meet every Wednesday (12am-2pm) to discuss and write about a wide range of topics.

We all (including the tutor) have experience of mental illness and the group caters specifically for this. We meet every Wednesday (11am-1pm) to discuss and write about a wide range of topics. The atmosphere is friendly, guidelines are agreed, confidentiality is respected, and whilst everyone takes part, there is never any pressure to share your writing unless you want to. There’s plenty of variety – something different every week – and since the group is ongoing you can attend on a regular basis or just drop in when you feel like it. This group was originally founded by a lady called Janice Kidd, whom sadly died and in honour of her memory, we kept the group going. We are Andy Bengall, David Coombes, and David Kipping. Either one of us will facilitate each week, however, if someone has an idea for a topic for the group to write about, and would like to present it to the group, we will allow that person to take the class for a day.

I'm not going to say that I'm very dissapointed with today's attendence(or lack thereof)BUT, I'm also NOT gonna say that I'm not. NOT very dissapointed with it!(( if one will excuse the triple negative) I hope that ( as prior warned) those of whom were NOT there, would be deemed as being square! So.... ha ha, TheKipster and I WERE there,along with a new participant(as anonymity of the group is garaunteed) just for fun, let's call him,Gavin, and being a trio of COOL PEOPLE,sitting at 3 equalateral points in the room., WE..were most definitevely there, and most importantly, we were, unequivically....NOT being square! Like YOU, yes YOU THERE,YOU,who was NOT THERE(hence, having, also missed the privelage, of assigning one's self, to one's predesignated, long term positional chair) I regret to inform you, that,NOW, not ONLY are you SQUARE, but also, at any future events, you WILL have to sit on the floor! Ha ha( at your expense) what a ROAR!Deckchairs, bring your's,squares on the floor!
BUT, I only jest,OF COURSE, because,being the kind.and caring, loving empathic people we are, we Understand that life is hard,and would still like to share our "NON-Squared experience" and so,for wotever reason,it's only fair, to declare, that ALL can be resolved, forgiven,and forgotten, with absoluely NO discrimimation against " the otherwise angled" we WILL BE THERE, at Recoco on .CarliolSquare, every Wednesday 11am-1pm. It's just a drop -in session, so, NO booking or placement needed, NO committement necessary, NO previous writing experience needed.EVERYONE can, and are welcome to come along, and be OBLONG!
