I'm starting one up in Manchester - let me know if you're interested/local.
Have you ever wanted to write for TV, Film, Radio or the Theatre? The Writers' Guild of Great Britain is setting up a writer's circle in Manchester for all aspiring screen, film, radio and theatre scriptwriters currently living in the North. The group meets fortnightly to share ideas and opportunities, along with inviting guest speakers to visit and talk about their experiences, with the opportunity to showcase your work after six months. If you're interested and want more details, please contact Simon Stratton at simon.stratton@gmail.com or 07968753347. We are also looking for officers and co-ordinators to help with the running of the groups.
Best regards,
Simon Stratton

WGGB Writers' Circle
The Writers' Guild of Great Britain is pleased to announce that the first ever WGGB Writers' Circle will begin in September 2007 and we are inviting applications now.
The initiative is being set up to provide Guild members with a forum to discuss and develop their work. There will be two groups available for applicants to join: one for Full and one for Candidate/Student Members. Writers in these groups will also be separated according to genre: TV/ Film and Theatre/Radio. Please specify when you apply which genre you are interested in.
At each group meeting writers will be given feedback about their work from their fellow participants. After six months two writers from each circle will be selected by a panel of judges to present their work at a showcase. Following this event, each group will be disbanded and new applicants will be invited to form a new Circle.
And Frankie, you'll always be 31st in my book!
