Sir.-I am planning to start a writer's group to meet once a month in Basingstoke.

This group will be friendly, informal, inspirational and encouraging.

We can give each other tips on genres, writer's courses and help with that writer's block.

You don't have to be published - you just have to like writing.

For a friendly chat about the group, please contact me by e-mail at Knightpoppy@aol.com or call 01256 843725.

Let's get scribbling.

-Wendy Knight, Hatch Warren, Basingstoke.
