It\’s the perfect time to join us – come along and say hello, or better still, drop us an email on joinus@derbyshirescriptwriters.com.
New Year, new stories! Next Meeting Tuesday 8th January 2013, Flowerpot Pub Derby
Happy New Year everybody! Derbyshire Scriptwriters is back for more script chat and discussion – but this month there\’s a twist…
We\’re hosting a write-in session at the Flowerpot Pub this month (Tuesday 8th Jan 2013)- bring your laptop, tablet, typewriter, notepad and pen, even slate and chalk – and get writing! We\’ll be sharing what we\’ve been working on at the end of the session, then what our plans our for our newly created work in progress. In future months, we\’ll be giving selected members works a full critique.
Last year we discussed everything from political intrigue to animated fairytales with a modern twist – so, if you\’ve been scratching at an idea for a story that\’s been in the back of your head for ages, now is the time to get going – see you there!
Merry Christmas! Next meeting Tuesday 4th, at the Flowerpot Pub
Not to early to wish you the compliments of the season, is it?
Just before you fill up on turkey and mince pies, fill your writing brain with plots, characters, backstories and other scripty things!
Derbyshire Scriptwriters will be mulling over another script at the Flowerpot Pub next Tuesday – and you\’re very welcome to join us – email joinus@derbyshirescriptwriters.com and get involved!
