Groups

Tyne & Esk Writers is made up of seven writing groups, plus two thematic groups for novelists
and poets. Please feel free to come along to any group. Membership is confined to adults only,
because many members write about and discuss adult subjects, and because of the current legal
requirements of Child Protection legislation.

The following writers' groups are supported by
East Lothian Libraries and Midlothian Libraries.

Attendance is free and all are welcome.
