Welcome to WriteClub
I'm so glad you've made it here! I'm Alison Powell - a writer, teacher and creativity coach. I've been running WriteClub's creative writing workshops, novel writing courses and co-writing bootcamps (think warm cosy online spaces to get to your writing...not running up hills with heavy weight-vests!) and 1-1 coaching for more than a decade now so you're in the right place if you'd like some support with your writerly goals.
I believe that everyone has a right to write and my personal mission is to support you in finding your voice and setting your words free.
​
Lots of WriteClub's workshops and courses are delivered via the WriteClub Zoom Room which means you can join wherever you are. I also love delivering face-to-face workshops and retreats and regularly deliver these in the lovely city of Bristol in the South West of England. You can find out about WriteClub's core sessions on this website, but keep an eye on the newsletter (Sign up here!) and Instagram pages to find out about one-off events like coffee mornings and Write Together sessions.
I've also produced bespoke workshops for businesses, universities and local community groups, so do get in touch via info@writeclub.org.uk if you'd like more information about how a creative writing workshop could help your team.
​​​​​​
You'll always find a welcoming space at WriteClub where you can take small steps (and giant leaps!) towards your writing goals. You (and your words) can become part of the global community of fabulous humans that make up WriteClub. Come and join us!
What they're saying about WriteClub...
J M Joseph,
author of Fire Boy trilogy
Alison Powell of WriteClub is a writer’s dream, a reader who sees your story before you do, an editor with an ear for the rhythm of prose. Her notes helped me carve out the opening for Fire Boy, the novel that helped me find an agent and publisher. Her classes are a godsend for any writer looking for help and inspiration.
Rebecca Rogers
author of The Purgatory Poisonings
With Alison’s help and the wonderful support of the WriteClub community, I eventually finished the book!
Anna Sonny
longlisted for Bridport Prize 2021
With the support and encouragement of WriteClub, I’ve written much more than I thought I was capable of.
Fiona Fletcher Reid
author of Work It Out
Alison is always encouraging, seems so genuinely invested in everyone taking part which was lovely. She created a warm, welcoming space which made showing up to take part very easy.
