Salon membership is available only to subscribers of Mslexia magazine.
Upcoming Salon events
May Lunchtime Write-ins | Mondays, 12-1pm via Zoom
Our regular write-in schedule is disrupted by two Bank Holidays this month! But we'll be joining you for an hour of writing on Monday 11 & 18 May, 12-1pm via Zoom. Whether you’re able to join us for the full hour or just a few minutes, if you're looking for some writerly camaraderie, pop in and say hello. Visit the event page in the Salon to join in.
When Physics and Fairy Tales Collide | 18 May 5:30-7pm via Zoom
Physics is filled with galaxies of inspiration for writers of fiction, poetry, non-fiction and hybrids, from delicious terms like 'charmed quark' and the 'luminiferous aether' to mysterious and magical concepts such as 'dark' energy' and 'quantum gravity'. Writers have been using fairy tales as inspiration for centuries, borrowing characters, structures and general fairytaleishness. What might result from the collision of these two universes? In this workshop with Tania Hershman, we'll experiment, creating physics fairy tales, naming our own subatomic particles, and inviting Snow White, Goldilocks and all the bears into the lab! (If anything science-y makes you nervous, don't worry, this is all about imagination - you won't be tested!) Visit the event page in the Salon to register.
Information about events in June and July is coming soon. Keep an eye out!
