Sat 8th Jun 2019 - Space to Write Day

​Would you benefit from some time away from domestic distractions to work on your current project in the company of like-minded people? We're running a relaxed and informal 'retreat' day in Sheffield where you can do just that. Tea, coffee and biscuits will be provided throughout the day, and we'll be on hand to support, encourage and advise where possible. For those who aren't working on a specific project but would still like to benefit from the day, we'll offer a writing prompt in the morning and another in the afternoon to get you started. There will be some time at the end of the day to read a small section of your work to the rest of the group, though this is purely optional.
