Hi Astra, I’m planning to do a monthly meet to discuss a personal essay starting from October. It won’t be a writing group because we won’t be reading people’s work, or giving feedback, only reading a published essay each month, and discussing. It will be an hour long. The writers workshop is a writer’s group where you submit your work and read other people’s work. It’s also a monthly meet up but there is a reading commitment, as well as a chance to share your work three times - up to 5,000 words - over the course of the eight months. Hope that’s clear! I’d love to have you join
Thanks for explaining this Lily. Ooh, the monthly discussion sounds brilliant, and the writers group is defo calling me too... l will email Ennis with a couple of money and date questions Xx
Thank you both for introducing your Writer’s Workshop, I wish I’d found you when my MA finished in 2018! I feel I’m a year away from being ready to join now, but in preparation, as I have to manage my energy really carefully, could you tell me if the live Zoom calls are recorded to re-watch (or to watch if I’m unable to join a live call).
Lily could I also ask about your memoir group that Astra has mentioned. This sounds just what I’m looking for at the moment, and I’d love to know how I could join.
Sorry! I’ve just seen the details of your memoir group! 🤦♀️ I’d scrolled too quickly but I’d appreciate more info about the Writers Workshop Zoom still please.
Hi Lily, I'm feeling keen on joining your group, but can I just ask if your new memoir club is going to be a sort of writing group...? Xx

Hi Jamie, yes we do record the sessions so that’s not a problem at all! Hope you can join us! I also can take payment in instalments if it helps
