Rising Brook Writers can be found in Rising Brook Branch Library, Merrey Road, Stafford. We are a voluntary group of senior citizens/over 50s/disabled people with an interest in creative writing

Everyone has a story to tell - If you don't tell yours who will???

 

As well as the web site (above) you can join them on MySpace.com


We love short stories - novels - poems - factual articles - memories about social history. Older people carry a great wealth of the fabric of 'true' social history locked in their collective memory - if they don't share these memories and pass them on, much of the truth of our times will be lost.

PLEASE NOTE: We only accept new friends who have Open Profiles and who are are genuinely interested in the art form of creative writing.
