What we’re about
Creative Writes has been providing regular creative writing workshops across London since 2009. We had a wonderful year of celebrating our tenth Birthday in 2019, including a very special Words & Wine evening in March of that year.
The groups provide a welcoming and supportive environment for writers at all levels, giving you space to write.
We are based in Muswell Hill, North London, N10.
We moved our workshops online during the first lockdown in 2020. The programme we offered was Space to Write Mondays & Free Flow Fridays weekly and Words & Wine fortnightly,
In 2023, we are delighted to now offer a varied programme of online and in person workshops; Space to Write Mondays online (weekly), Walk & Write (monthly at weekends) at North London outdoor spaces & landmarks, Words & Wine online (monthly) and in person at various North London venues. Please see Meetup & our Creative Writes website for info and booking:

You do not need to prepare anything before attending. All you need is an open mind and your favourite notebook & pens! The workshops are for anyone aged 18 and over.
Nichola is the group facilitator and will guide you through a series of fast paced creative writing exercises.
The groups are small, supportive, motivational and tailor-made. We begin by developing our own voice & stories. The focus is not on critique but on the writing itself - exploring and enjoying the process.
You will leave with a tool kit of ideas with which to develop your work. The aim is for you to feel confident and energised with your writing. We are a writing community.
