Early notice - our next meeting (Thu 9 May, 8pm, Wendover Library) will welcome professional scriptwriter Adrian Poynton, who will talk about how he turns ideas into scripts. Can't wait!

Last night I went to my first meeting as a Committee Member of Chiltern Writers. A wonderful writing group which Ive been a part of for around 5 years now. It's taken them that long to talk me into being a committee member, but I'm glad they did. chilternwriters.org

Looking forward to tonight's Chiltern Writers meeting - a talk from professional screenwriter Adrian Poynton on how he goes from idea to script - can't wait! #amwriting

I've just read Chinese exile 马建 Ma Jian 's latest novel 'China Dream', and was blown away by his satirical take-down of the modern Chinese State. Read it if you get the chance!

Had such a brilliant evening at last Thursday's CW event. Adrian Poynton talked to us about his journey as a #screenwriter , sharing loads of tips he's learned along the way. Hugely inspiring!

Julie Cohen Just to give you a little boost, the character I created at your Chiltern Writers workshop is now the protagonist in my WIP - and he's rather excellent, if I do say so myself.

Heading out shortly to this month's Chiltern Writers meeting - a talk on life as a #journalist, by Suna Erdem. Looking forward to it!

A rather belated tweet, but the @BeaconLit1 literary festival in Ivinghoe, 2 weekends ago, was absolutely superb. A personal highlight was the session below.
