Creative Writing

'There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you' - Maya Angelou

Hello and welcome to the Creative Writing society!

Home to a group of bookworms and budding writers, we aim to create and cultivate a community of readers and writers alike, of all disciplines and all genres. Our main events include:

• A weekly Writer's Room, where creative writers can take part in prompt and flash fiction sessions, share their own pieces, and receive feedback. However, if you're more of a reader than a writer, feel free to come along and give your advice, feedback, or appreciation.
• Organised trips to panels in Waterstones Swansea

While our sessions are primarily in-person, all meetings will also be available as online zoom meetings that can be joined at the same time. While we encourage those who attend to write and take part, this is not a rule and there is no requirement or pressure to share what you have written, or even to have written anything at all. We welcome students of all levels and backgrounds, and all the creativity they may bring.

Current sessions include:

Wednesday 3-5pm Writer's Rooms, accessible in person at seminar room 1, Fulton House.

Sessions include prompt writing, discussion of books, and feedback on writings. Even if you do not share your writing, we encourage members to take part in the in-session writing in order to develop and gain confidence and practice.

Join our Discord server to keep up to date with scheduled events and society announcements, and if you have any questions feel free to email us at creativewriting@swansea-societies.co.uk

Hope to see you, and write with you, very soon!
