Breakaway Writers

Breakaway Writers is an online writers group created by the wife of an ex resident who still lives in the area.  The group is free of constraints, which provides stimulation for other like-minded vertical visionaries

Members get involved by sending in their work via e-mail to: breakawaywriters@yahoo.co.uk . These submissions can be about anything, about any subject and in any form and are posted onto the Breakaway Writers website. Basically the group is for like-minded people who want to get involved and share their work online for critical appraisal. There is also the chance to send in writer's tips, links for writing competitions and other writer's sites.

The Breakaway Writers website can be found at:  http://breakawaywriters.blog.co.uk/

Twice a month there is a newsy posting (every second and fourth weekend) but submissions can be accepted anytime. At the moment we have a Round Robin where members contribute 99 words towards an on going story. There are also plans at Christmas to send every member a present - an e-zine of submissions from as many as possible.


To become a Breakaway Writer, members are asked to send their e-mail address, name, general location and a 30-word writer's profile to the following email address:

e-mail address: breakawaywriters@yahoo.co.uk

(members e-mail addresses are not included on the site, these are used for administration purposes only)

If sufficient people are interested it may be possible to start a local Writers Group.
