  What shall I do with my Creative Writing group? Here are a list of suggestions based on what you might do over a year, whether   you meet once a week or once a month. Each suggested session plan allows you to plan an interesting session with your group, and suggests what to do in the session, what you need to prepare before the session and how you might follow it up. Suggested timings are included.       Have fun with my Let's get Writing. Those creative juices will soon be flowing.    There are three prompts a day for the whole of 2023. Some are short and pithy, others are inspired by obscure days e.g. 8 January Bubble Bath Day , and some go into more detail on an aspect of writing craft.

Sometimes people just give him money because they've run out of present ideas.   Then when he comes to spend that money there's hardly anything left in the shops. It’s the same this year. He can't find any Lego bricks he wants.   An old man who reminds him of his Grandpa Jack is sitting cold and hungry on the street.
