WordWatchers
Serious About Writing
Supporting Berkshire writers since 2001
WordWatchers is a small group of writers based in West Berkshire whose purpose is to help writers achieve their goals. Some of us are published. Some of us have agents. And some of us are working towards that first success - however we define it.
We write in a variety of genres, from children's to romantic historical fiction to crime. What we have in common is our passion and dedication to writing, meeting up each month to share what we’ve done, discuss what’s worked and what hasn’t, and make our promises for the month ahead.
And eat cake.
Nominated for 2nd RoNA
Following last year's win, Charlotte Betts finds herself on the RoNA shortlist once again with The Painter's Apprentice.
WordWatchers anthology
Eleven short stories covering lost love, first love, death, birth, redemption and time-travel, including contributions from award-winning novelist, Charlotte Betts and Sunday Times Bestseller, Katherine Webb.
Little, Brown debut for Abbie
Little, Brown Book Group acquires Abbie Rushton's Unspeakable, for publication in its Atom imprint next spring.
Weekend retreat
For the perfect antidote to winter blues, WordWatchers took to the road, heading to Dorset for a weekend of writing, relaxation, wine... and cake.
