Write Club Byron Bay

On Tuesday 10 November, we will welcome special guest, Lorena Carrington, to co-host Write Club.

Lorena is an award-winning writer, illustrator and unashamed puzzle nerd. She writes adventurous books for children and adults, and illustrates picture books, fairy tales, short stories and book covers. Her latest adult book A Puzzling Pursuit combines puzzles, mysteries and one rollicking road trip.

We will be discussing the theme of PLAYFUL, and her prepared prompts are FUN.

The evening will run from 6-8:30pm (doors open at 5:30pm), and will include a short conversation with Lorena about her experiences and writing practice. To attend, purchase tickets for Tuesday 10th November.

Write Club is a weekly, two-hour guided creative writing session for people who want to slow down, reflect and reconnect with their creative selves. Whether you write regularly or haven’t picked up a pen in years, these sessions are welcome to all skill levels.

Take a seat. Pick up your pen. Allow it to nestle in the crook between your thumb and your index finger. Place the nib to the blank page before you and let the words flow out of you. In this warm space, bathed in the soft glow of candles, surrounded by lovers of poetry and prose, you have found a community.

Each session is facilitated by me (Mark Isaacs), I'm an author of three books and a writing teacher and mentor. I guide the room through two hours of themed writing prompts. I hold the space, set the pace, and make it a place where you can rediscover your love of writing.

This is not a class. There are no lessons. But the prompts will broaden your writing skills and encourage you to think deeply about your creative practice.

When: Every Tuesday, 6-8pm. Doors open at 5:30pm.
Where: Old Maids, Brunswick Heads
Bring: A pen and paper

Come alone or bring friends. Either way, come often. Each week’s theme is announced on our Substack, Instagram and Facebook pages.

Food and drinks can be ordered from Saint Maries.

Bookings are essential, as places are limited.
