This year is the National Year of Reading. This national campaign presents an opportunity to celebrate the life-changing power of reading in our day-to-day lives. Last year New Writing North set up our first contemporary fiction reading group in conjunction with The Living Room in Newcastle. The project has been such a success that we are starting two new groups – a new book group at the Blue Lounge in Middlesbrough, and this, The Poetry Room poetry reading group in Newcastle. Joining the groups is easy and free and gives you access to special book offers on selected books at Blackwell, Newcastle, occasional free books and the opportunity to meet visiting authors face-to-face at events. All of the groups are flexible to attend, the books are announced in advance and you can come along every month or whenever suits you – the choice is yours. All we ask is that you sign up in advance.
Please contact the New Writing North office directly by phone on 0191 222 1332 to join the groups or email:
Living Room Book Group

Blue Lounge Book Group

Poetry Room Book Group

And that’s it. You can come to every meeting or every now and then. And it won’t cost you a penny.
