Torridon Writers
Torridon Writers is a creative writing group which meets on the first Tuesday of every month. We take our writing seriously but we do it in a fun and gentle way. We experiment with all sorts of ways to write: poetry, stories, memories and anecdotes. Along the way we discover a lot about each other and different ways to express ourselves. We are a group of friends who support and care about one another as we make our way through the world of writing. We always welcome new members, whether you have written before or have never written a word.
