About the EAW |
East Anglian Writers aims to bring together and help promote
the work of professional writers in Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex,
Bedfordshire and Cambridgeshire.
We hold a number of social events throughout the year to help
break the isolation of writing and share experiences. In addition
to social events, we also organise occasional outings, performances
and readings of writers’ work, and speakers.
Our members come from a variety of disciplines, including biography,
fiction, non-fiction, children’s books, translation and
poetry.. |
 |
Our Annual Social Events often include: |
A Spring Jolly (a tour of places of literary interest in
East Anglia)
A Spring Lunch
The Summer Party (a pastoral gathering with food and wine)
The Christmas Party (a lively lunchtime party to meet fellow
members)
|
Literary Events: |
| Readings, performance, master classes and speakers. |

How we are organised |
We are an informal and non-profit making organisation. Our
committee meets whenever necessary, and members are welcome
to
attend (contact the chairman to find out about our next meeting). Committee
members are listed on the back of this
leaflet.
The day-to-day running of the EAW is the responsibility of the Steering
Committee, the Chairman is the first port of call on most matters.
