We are a friendly and passionate group of writers, based in Coalville, Leicestershire. Founded in 2018 by Felicity Middleton and Peter Huckerby, we have grown as a group over that time. Although members have changed over time, our ethos remains the same.
“Supporting and encouraging all writers to build confidence and careers, from writers to authors”
All members of the group have their genre of interest, writing experience and personal style. This is what makes this group work so well, we each bring something to the table when giving feedback on each others writing projects.
Meet the Authors
On our ‘Meet the Author’ page you can find a short introduction to each author. If you like the look of an author, click through to their interview for more.
Writing Challenges
Each month we have a new writing challenge. The challenge is set by the group and can be anything from random words, images or experiences. We each then have a month to write a 500 word fast fiction or poem that meets the months challenge brief.
Our challenge stories and poems can be found on our challenges blog page.
“You may not write well every day, but you can always edit a bad page. You can’t edit a blank page.”

Books
Many of our authors have published books. Here you can find links to their books.
We also have a Coalville Writers Annual. This is a collection of hand picked short stories from the group members. The proceeds go to LOROS.
