The Writing Society

The Writing Society

Welcome to The Writing Society!

Whether you love to write or want to learn how then you have come to the right place!

We meet twice a week for sessions, with normally a social as well.

One session is to chat for two hours about anything we want to literature related. There'll be a topic - trope, character archetype, plot beat, or anything - given by our wonderful sessions coordinator, and we will talk examples, ideas, and go on SO MANY tangents. There'll also be a small, related writing task at the end, to get your brain buzzing.

The other session is again two hours, this time with various tasks, prompts, and general activities to get you writing. There's also a chance to (optionally) share your work with everyone, and get friendly feedback (genuinely, everyone is so supportive, it's great).

We also hold regular socials including our infamous Writer-All-Nighter, film nights, end of term meals, games nights and a few others...

If you can't make our regular sessions, or you simply can't get enough of us, you can join our Discord to share your writing and chat with other writers!

And, why not submit to Kamena, the society's publication? We accept constant submissions and push creative writing of every type around campus, both online and in physical print. From short stories to black and white photography, check out our submissions guidelines to see what fits and we'd love to publish your work!

Meet our Exec!

Every society has an exec - a group of people who run the society with help from the SU. We deal with every aspect of the society, such as sending you our weekly emails, planning and advertising events and regular socials, putting together Kamena, and mainly just being a really fun bunch of people. If The Writing Society is the place for you, then you'll see us around a lot, and maybe you'll even be on the exec yourself in the future! Below you can find out who we are so you can spot us among the crowds!
