Wendy Goulstone.

Rugby Cafe Writer Wendy Goulstone has contributed a poem to a new anthology raising money for NHS Covid-19 charities.

The new book features writers’ impressions of the 2020 pandemic: life under lockdown, loss and love, visions for the future. It includes the top picks of judge Andrew McMillan, a people’s vote winner based on videos of BBC Casualty actors, and other longlisted poems.

Wendy’s poem, entitled Guilt-Think, was longlisted for the anthology and was inspired by life under lockdown. Follow this link for details on how to buy the book.

Write Out Loud is a national (indeed, international) hub for participation in poetry, encouraging everyone who writes poetry – from still-too-nervous-to-do-open-mic to Nobel Prize winner – to share their words with others.

Writers

Welcome to the Rugby Cafe Writers. We are a friendly group of budding and experienced writers who meet in Rugby every fortnight and share our love of books and writing. We also have a spin-off group which gives authors a chance to get feedback on their works-in-progress. We publish our own anthologies and so far have nine books for sale!

Critique Group

If you have written something and would like feedback, you might be interested in joining our Critique Group. This meets monthly. You would be expected to fully participate in the group and offer your view on the writing of others as well.
