Calling romance and romantasy writers of London 💕 Let's gather, connect, write, and share!
If you're a romance or romantasy reader/writer based in London and you're looking to find a like-minded group to write and share with, look no further!
This monthly in-person group was created to foster a space for those of us specifically drawn to stories with romance at their core. If you adore tropes like enemies to lovers, fake dating, there was only one bed - and you want to write those kinds of stories - Pen Pals is for you!
Note: the format of these sessions is intended to be a free-writing session with likeminded people. You'll work on your own projects. This isn't a workshop with direction on what to write, but we can explore whether we do this in the future if there is interest.
Frequently asked questions
This group was designed to foster a space for likeminded readers and writers - those of us who love romance or romantasy books and stories. We’re hoping to get valuable critique from people who love and respect the genre. If this doesn’t sound like you, then this group might not be a good fit!
100%! Any hateful or prejudiced behaviour towards LGBTQ+ identities will not be tolerated.
The current venue is accessible (on ground floor) and as the group grows I will continue to prioritise this. I am open to suggestions and improvements as to how this event could be more accessible (e.g. online only events)
Yes! The only costs to consider are your own travel and if you want any food or drink at the venue. If there is ever going to be any cost, members will be informed. This would only be on the case of going to a venue that requires an entrance fee and would be organised ahead of time.
I’m in the process of organising a weeknight writing group (online/in person TBD) - follow for updates!
We’re a really friendly group and a welcoming space! But if you’d like to come along and have a chat with us first, we have a discord chat. Please reach out!
