We have had numerous successes and have enjoyed helping each other and sharing in their success.

The Group has been together for many year.  We were, at the start, all beginners but over the years have gained a great deal of experience and have now produced books for children and early teens, local history, adult fiction and non fiction with plays, historical fantasy and psychology.

All the books can be seen and ordered on the following pages and some are available at Waterstones, Southend and Leigh Heritage Centre.

If there are any Writers out there and would like to join the Group, please contact Tessa Buckley at tessa@leighwriters.org.uk
