Founded in 1937, West Sussex Writers’ Club is based in Worthing, England, and is open to anyone who loves writing, does writing or wants to do writing, or simply wants to listen to masters of their craft. We pride ourselves on making everyone feel welcome and no you don't have to be a West Sussex resident to become a member.
The Club meets on the second Thursday of each month, except August, and meetings are held at The Barn, Field Place, The Boulevard, Worthing (unless otherwise stated) commencing at 7.30pm. Our “writing year” runs from September to August each year.
Most months, an invited speaker comes along to talk about his or her genre and genres that have been covered in the past 72 years include crime, romance, comedy, children's and poetry writing. In addition, the Club runs regular workshops and competitions, catering for all tastes, and there is also an annual Open Short Story Slam open to members and non members alike.
To date the membership stand at 100+ and the joining fee is £20 (renewals are set at £15). For details on how to become a member write to Heather Reay, 131 Bevendean Crescent, Brighton, BN2 4RE or phone her on 01273 701235.
Anyone who joins the club will receive a COMPLIMENTARY copy of the club's anthology as well.
We look forward to welcoming you...
