Who we are

Discovery Writers enjoy the written word, sharing insights, humour and drama through stories, memoirs and poems.

What we do

We meet on the last Tuesday of each month (not January) to read and discuss our current works. Each year we choose a writing theme and upskill our knowledge through workshops. Discovery Writers welcomes all who enjoy writing to come and share in our friendship afternoons.

Meetings - Where and When

Miles Franklin room, Hurstville Library, Dora St, Hurstville

1.00 - 3.00pm, last Tuesday of the month (except January and December)

But wait ... there's more ...

Our 2024 Theme is 'Let's Start a Conversation'

Topics:

Feb:Love

Mar:War (Hostility)

Apr:Truth

May:Loss

Jun:Relationships

Jul:Power

Aug:Nature

Sep:Time

Oct:Peace

Nov:Intelligence (AI or I)

There's a well-known catchprase, 'We need to have a conversation', but one never seems to eventuate. Discovery Writers will respond to this plea by actually starting the conversation on controversial topics. Our year will also explore the world of language, discussing symbolism and euphemism and many more.

Monthly topics are not mandatory - but simply descriptive inspiration starters.
