Welcome to Word for Word 

Word for Word is an open Writers Group which meets every Wednesday afternoon between 1-3pm during term time at the Hornsey Library in Haringey Park, Crouch End, London N8. Sessions are varied, some are led by specialist tutors, others from within the group.

The main aim is to get some writing done: we are not a Literature Discussion Group. A typical session involves a brief introduction, followed by a suggestion or inspiration or idea from the tutor/leader and everyone starts writing. There is usually an opportunity to read your work out if you want to, but it’s not obligatory.

For more information info@wforw.org.uk or just turn up!

The first session is free, after that the price ranges from £4 to £6 per session.

The Word for Word Poetry Group meet on Tuesday afternoons 1-3pm at the same venue. The group is for beginning and improving poets and is organised and run by published poet and qualified tutor Laurence Scott. Join any time. For further details please contact Laurence poetic@btinternet.com

The Novelists' Group meet in the library fortnightly to read and comment on one another’s work, more details on their own page.

There is also a group that meets in the Central Library, High Road, Wood Green on Saturday mornings from 11-1pm, more details on their own page
