Words on Wednesday 26th November 2025
Dear Writers,
Please note that we cannot confirm Artswords dates until we receive Artswords Newsletter on the 1st day of each month, so we really appreciate your patience. Just a reminder that the Artswords Writer's Kitchen and Artswords Writer's Cafe now cost £2 per session, but grants are available for those who cannot afford the costs.
Here's your weekly update:
This week's Extra Task:
Have a go at writing your own Murder Mystery.
Sneaky peek at next Week's Tasks:
If I were: Christmas Food, what would you be?
Main Task: Secret Santa Cards - we'll be making these, including writing the words inside the cards that will be randomly handed out on Wednesday 17th December. Don't forget the 17th will be our last writing session for the year. We would also like to discuss with everyone what's happening with the Gallery space next year. Also, Penni has gone through the whole of next year adding tasks in, but we would like to discuss what you would like to see in group, then add it or change it in the diary, all ideas welcome.
IMPORTANT DATES FOR THE DIARY:
Write Along Tuesday, (W.A.T) - Central Library, Downstairs
If you are free between 1pm to 2.30pm on a Tuesday, and you are in town, why not join Penni, (Co-Facilitator, Words on Wednesday), for a different style of writing group, by bringing along your own writing projects you are working on.
This is a wonderful time to write with others, rather than by yourself. When writing with other people, you can garner ideas, and help with your writing if you feel stuck. It can be better to write in a group rather than by yourself.
Another, very important date for the diary, even though we are jumping way ahead into next year:
SWINDON FESTIVAL OF LITERATURE - 4th to 10th MAY 2026 - more information nearer the time.
If you fancy a Coffee, Cake, Panini or a Sandwich, go along and support Martin and his wonderful team at FIKA. Once a month Martin kindly puts on an Open Mic for Writers to come together, and read out their work. Watch this space. . . We will add more details once we know when the next one will be held, but in the meantime check out FIKA.

Happy writing everyone!
