We gather again on 2nd September, when our theme will be “crises.” And as always, if the topic doesn’t quite speak to you, please feel free to bring whatever you’ve been working on, a poem, a monologue, a slice of autobiography, a roman à clef, something factual or entirely imagined. Whether it’s lyric poetry, flash fiction, a scene from a play, a reflective essay, a character sketch, a fragment of memoir, or something experimental and genre‑defying, we will be delighted to hear it.  Whatever form your writing takes, it’s welcome.
