writing groups? book clubs?

Postby Boronia » Thu Feb 19, 2009 6:35 pm

Does anyone know of any existing writing groups or book clubs in Shanghai (in English) which would welcome new members? As I work, I'm interested in ones which meet at night or on Sundays.
Yes, I have used the search function, but I couldn't find any up-to-date information.
Would appreciate any help.

I think there's one book club meeting up in Figaro near Xintiandi, but I've never actually been to any of their meetings. Go to cityweekend, I think they have more info re this. I'm not sure if that club is still functional.

For the writing club, I've read somewhere, maybe also in cityweekend, that there's a group (different from the book club) also supposedly meeting up every now and then. I haven't seen them or read about them anywhere else since. Perhaps it's time to put up a new one, eh?

PM Pierro. There was a post by him some days back about a book exchange club meeting.
