20 Meetup Groups match “Novel Reading” near Twickenham, United Kingdom
Do you know how the World is going to end? These authors do! We are a group of friends who realized that we are interested in post-apocalyptic books and as half joke decided to start a book club dedicated to it. We will be meeting once a month in a pub in Central London to chat about a pre-chosen post-apocalyptic themed book, as well as organizing movie nights and pub crawls. Also, we are an equal opportunity group and don't discriminate against those who are into dystopic lit, so if you fancy …

This is a book club that focuses on queer literature, from the trashy to the highbrow. We read long tomes, graphic novels, short stories and even non-fiction, whatever takes our fancy. The aim of the group is to celebrate non-normative gender and sexuality, bring queer culture to life, learn about queer history and make new friends. You don’t have to identify as anything to join this group. We usually meet on the last Wednesday of every month. Each meetup we discuss the chosen book, have a fre …
We're slowly making our way through the Guardian's list of 1000 novels everyone must read, which covers novels about love, crime, comedy, family and self, state of the nation, science fiction and fantasy, and war and travel. We work our way through the categories each month, and invite members to nominate books from the list. Once nominations have been received, all members vote for their choice. The book club is for people living in and around Chiswick, as well as those who don't mind travelli …

Writing can be difficult and lonely. Sometimes we need to get out and away from our own distractions and excuses. Pubs, cafes and parks are nice but wouldn't it also be good to be part of a group of writers? So let's work quietly together, gently encouraging each other to soldier on, and minding each others things when we have to go to the loo... THE IDEA Is simple. We are a group of serious writers that meet somewhere comfortable and write for 2, 3 or 4 hours straight. Each person works on th …

We'll meet at an interesting, new local restaurant, pub or café, or at people's homes if they're willing to make it festive with a few snacks and drinks!

"Instead of the modernist quest for meaning in a chaotic world, the postmodern author eschews, often playfully, the possibility of meaning, and the postmodern novel is often a parody of this quest. Postmodern authors also tend to celebrate chance over craft, and further employ metafiction to undermine the writer's authority. Another characteristic of postmodern literature is the questioning of distinctions between high and low culture through the use of pastiche, the combination of subjects and …

Hi this meet up is about pitching. Elevator pitching. Simple as that. So you've got a great idea for a story: a screenplay, a novel, a sit com, a TV series or whatever it is, brilliant!! Now why not try it out? Come and see if it sounds good to a group of 'ordinary' guys before you spend two years in your bedroom writing it when you could be having fun instead or writing something a whole lot better? Or maybe you've already done your first draft (or many of them) and now you're thinking of sell …

I think it's about time that Wimbledon Village had its own book club. What I have in mind is a group that comes together to discuss books, probably mostly fiction but with a little other stuff thrown into the mix and meeting over coffee, or food, or drinks in a local cafe, restaurant or bar. There may be the occasional 'other event' like a 'meet the author' or a theatre trip, but with books and friendly discussion at the core. At great way to make new friends or cement friendships too. If you'd …

The Conception Club was set up to provide an exclusive forum for those people who attended the excellent 'Original' writing course run personally by Maggie Hamand and Naiome Wood at the Groucho Club which ended on the 17th November 2012. It aims to provide a space in which to discuss creative writing ideas, give and receive support and generally keep in touch for people already personally acquainted during the course. It may in future open up to current or ex-attendees from other Groucho writing …
