As you will appreciate, poetry needs the very closest attention to the text and this is hard to do if one can only listen. Therefore, at these meetings we ask that you bring along 8 copies of the poem you wish to be considered.

This meets on the second Wednesday of each month at 7.30 pm at 29 High Street, Chesterton, Cambridge. By one of those quirky vagaries of house numbering, number 29 is next door to number 37.

Both fiction and non-fiction is read at this group. Although we would not wish this criterion to dictate the length of pieces, we usually ask that work substantially over 2000 words be read over two meetings.

Meetings are confirmed to be on the third Thursday of each month at 222 Hills Road. This is on the corner of Luard Road, on the right hand side as you go out from the city centre.

The works considered are usually novels under construction, but non-fiction is equally welcome.

In order to prevent numbers becoming unwieldy in this group, it sometimes meets at two different venues on the same evening.

There are 2 or 3 members who work on travel narratives and who meet twice a month.

This is a recently established group.
