Face-to-face and screen-to-screen contact with our team and guest experts...

Sometimes simply reading about creativity and publishing is not quite enough, and you crave feedback on your writing and actual contact with those in the know. That's where our events programme comes in. Join us in the Mslexia Salon for a full programme of online events, and if you'd prefer to devote a whole week to making progress on your Memoir or Novel, check out our upcoming Women's Writing Weeks.

Upcoming Salon Events

June Write-ins | 12-1pm via Zoom
Our lunchtime write-ins offer a quiet, communal writing space every Monday in June, 12-1pm via Zoom. Even if you're only able to join for 15 minutes, feel free to pop in and say hello. Visit the Salon for the link to join. 

Writing Tales from Tree Folklore | with Zoe Gilbert | 9 June, 5-7pm
In this session Zoe will explore the rich folklore of the elder tree and the oak tree, including strange beliefs and old tales. You'll then use these as inspiration to create new stories about these enchanted trees, imbued with folkloric magic. Visit the event page in the Salon to register. 

From Beginning to End | with Huma Qureshi | 30 June, 5-7pm
All too often, short story writers don't know where to begin or where to end their stories, meaning their stories either don’t get started at all or fizzle out somewhere in the middle. Join award-winning author Huma Qureshi on 30 June from 5-7pm for a short story writing salon focused on the craft of opening and closing a short story, how to create a captivating start to hook readers in as well as a resonant ending that will stay with your reader long after they have read the last word. Expect writing exercises, thoughtful discussion and a chance to read your work outloud for feedback. Visit the event page in the Salon to register.  

Crafting tiny tales | A workshop with Martha Lane | 14 July, 5-7pm 
On 14 July, join Martha Lane from 5-7pm for a workshop full of prompts designed to take your flash fiction to the next level, and make those tiny tales linger in your readers' minds. Expect to delve into everything from character, and setting, to speculative plots and heart-rending premises. Visit the event page in the Salon to register.
