AyrWritersClub

Membership

We have three levels of yearly Ayr Writers’ Club Membership – Full, e-Member, and Student Member.
Our meetings are held at the Mercure Ayr Hotel, with a full programme of Guest Speakers, Workshops and Club Evenings from September 2023 until May 2024.
Over the summer months, from June to August 2024, bring along your drafts (in any genre), or a sample of your completed works (up to 1000 words) to read out at the fortnightly Readaround Feedback Evenings. Or just listen, enjoy the readings, offer thoughts if any come to you. It’s a chance to enjoy the camaraderie of fellow writers as we offer each other constructive, helpful feedback.
Your membership will expire on 31 August 2024.

HALF-YEAR MEMBERSHIP for our current programme is available from January 2024 at 50% of the full year price. 

JOIN ONLINE HERE anytime throughout the year.
