North West Thread

Just starting a thread that is (quite obviously) North West England related. Hopefully we can concentrate all notices, gossip, etc in this one thread.

Saturday 3rd April - Leigh Library

As part of the annual Leigh & Wigan Words festival (which is currently running) there is an event taking place on Saturday which may be of interest to Northwest Frenzies.

see http://www.wlct.org/arts/ffever/ffever.htm

I'll be there all day - as one of the representatives of "Scriptshop", which is a group for scriptwriters that meets regularly in Leigh. If you come along in the morning, I'll be manning the Scriptshop table at the neworking event. Make yourself known, and perhaps you can join us for lunch before the afternoon "hear the words" event.

RE: North West Thread

BTW, if you've been bitten by the scriptwriting bug, and want to find a group of like-minded souls to help you hone your skills - and you live within reasonable evening commuting distance of Leigh, Lancs, then why not come along to Scriptshop.

See the Scriptshop webpage for more details.

Possibly something to think about after completing your Scriptfrenzy piece - when you're wondering about taking thing further.

RE: North West Thread

Dave (Frogfall),

I used to go to Script Shop years ago when it very first started (I'm based in Wigan). Ed Jones ran it then and it was held in The Derby Room upstairs in Leigh Library. Is it more or less the same format and members? Were you one of the original members? And I see the venue's changed too since I last attended.

RE: North West Thread

Hello all you North Westers.

Its amazing that this thread is focused on the Wigan/Leigh area. As I'm from Wigan too.

That ScriptShop sounds cool but alas I cannot attend as I work in the Midlands during the week, and I have learned that I'm crap at writing scripts. But with practice I'll get better. Hopefully.
