About this Event
Welcome to The Blank Page Group!
Come along to Renroc Cafe & Bar for an evening of writing/drawing and comraderie. Whether you're working on the next brilliant faerie novel, adding wordcount to your dissertation on Virginia Woolf, drawing D&D characters, or writing cover letters for job applications, come along to be productive, and enjoy lots of chat and good humour.
The structure of our sessions is roughly this: we introduce ourselves and our goals for the evening and write/draw for three sprints of 25 minutes, with a break after each one. At the end of the session, we depart to the pub to celebrate our wordcount wins/lament our losses.
A wee note:
It is important to us that this group is a friendly, welcoming space in which everyone feels comfortable, so please show the utmost respect to all our members, as well as to the staff at Renroc (who kindly allow us the use of the café’s space) and their patrons. We uphold a zero-tolerance policy for any aggressive, inappropriate, disrespectful, discriminatory, or unwanted behaviour, and anyone engaging in these behaviours may be asked to leave an event or the group. If you do experience anything that makes you uncomfortable please let a member of the committee know and they will deal with it accordingly. All the committee members present will identify themselves at the start of every session. Thank you and happy writing.
