Looking back on 2023

2023 has been another successful year for Whittlesey Wordsmiths, Whittlesey u3a’s creative writing group.

Book launch of Dead End Tales with most of the authors

We have published our latest collection of short stories and poetry, our sixth, Dead End Tales, with illustrations by Jane Pobgee.

Stephen Oliver has received a joint award from The Writer’s Forum for his novels Shuttlers and Paranormal City.

Three Members, Cathy Cade, Philip Cumberland and Wendy Fletcher have had stories included in an American anthology, Marsha Ingrao’s, Story Chat Online Conversations.

Philip Cumberland has published a collection of his short stories collaborating with distantly related George Holmes.

Cathy Cade has had short stories published in People’s Friend and Val Fish has had limericks published online and in print. Stephen and Wendy have had public speaking engagements.

Last but by no means least our group was joined in 2023 by published author and poet Henry Curry.

Happy New Year to you all from Whittlesey Wordsmiths.

At the U3A meeting in Whittlesey yesterday I did a book signing session for my first book, The Railway Carriage Child. Over 100 members attended and the afternoon was a great success. I hope that is encouraging to all would-be writers who may be having doubts about stepping onto the public platform with their own creations
