Introducing…

The first rule of Write Club is everyone writes at Write Club.
The second rule of Write Club is everyone writes at Write Club.
The third rule of Write Club…

Dr Ian Walsh established Write Club two years ago as a weekly writing group. Usually held in the O’Donoghue Centre for Drama, Theatre and Performance on Thursday and Friday mornings, EDEN is bringing Write Club to YOU at this month’s EDEN evening session.

As summarised by Dr Walsh:

‘As many of us need to write on a regular basis and often do not do so except in manic episodes that are detrimental to our health and relationships I have decided to run Write Club.
This is not a writing group where we will offer criticism on each others work etc. It is simply a commitment to write for a time each week in a room with other people writing.’

Write Club employs the Pomodoro Technique (
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CT70iCaG0Gs) where you write for 25 minutes, take a break for 5 minutes, write for another 25 minutes and then take a break and write for another 25 minutes.

This will be a working session and a chance for you to try out Write Club as a productivity tool, so come prepared to write! Afterwards, we will adjourn for drinks, eats and chats at McGinn’s in Woodquay.

 

Please forward this onto anyone who might be interested in joining us next week and/or signing up to our mailing list too!

We hope to see you there, and remember—the first rule of Write Club is…
