Ryedale Writers

We meet once a month on a Thursday evening at 7pm. 

2025 dates: 

Thu 16th Jan - 'Romance - bring all you have!'
Thu 13th Feb - An Evening of Romance event 
Thu 20th Mar
Thu 17 Apr
Thu 15 May
Thu 19 Jun
Thu 17 Jul

The work we bring to the meetings should be no longer than it takes to read in five minutes or less. The time limit has proved a useful curb on verbiage!

We've been delighted by the wide range of different responses to the themes we’ve come up with, both in style and content.

Further activities for the future may include workshops, public readings in the Arts Centre programme, outreach into local schools and more detailed exploration and analysis for those members submitting their work for in-depth feedback.

We regularly display members' work in the Arts Centre foyer and place audio/video recordings of it here and on HAC's facebook page. You can read some of our work here

The current yearly membership fee is £20.

We welcome writers at all levels of experience and you do not need to live in Ryedale.
