Mayflower Junior Writers

Do you like writing? Would you like to work with a professional writer?

ArtfulScribe and Mayflower Engage are inviting young people to get involved with a regular creative writing group that will help develop skills, encouraging young writers to share work and receive feedback in a respectful way that empowers voices. Meet new like-minded people and have lots of fun along the way.

We will explore creative writing through practical exercise’s and workshops on topics like characterisation, dialogue, setting and plot. Writers will work across genres including non-fiction, fiction, poetry and script-writing.

Weekly sessions will take place on Saturday mornings during term times. All sessions will take place at MAST Mayflower Studios.

These sessions are free but we are looking for commitment. All workshops are suitable for beginners and advanced writers.

There will be opportunities to watch performances at MAST Mayflower Studios or Mayflower Theatre as part of this programme. Opportunities are likely to be once per term, depending on show availability, and tickets may be free or available at a small fee. You will also receive exclusive offers through email for taking part in the group.
