Join a Community of Fiction Writers in Bristol, UK
Are you a fiction writer (either published or unpublished?) Do you live in Bristol or the surrounding areas of Bath, Swindon, Gloucester, Cheltenham or South West England? Yes?
Fantastic! Come and be a part of Bristol Fictionists, an informal but very friendly writers’ social group.
Note: We are a social group, rather than a “write together” or critique group. Expect lots of chatting, not a lot of writing! If you’re looking for quiet writing sessions with other writers, check out The Bristol Writing Collective.
Monthly Writers’ Socials

Come along to one of our monthly meetups, which take place at a Bristol City Centre pub location (venue emailed to newsletter subscribers). Meet new people and chat about writing, books, whatever you like.
