WRITERS’ CIRCLES
SPOTLIGHT ON…
Bramhall Crime Writers
This month saw Bramhall Crime Writers celebrating their sixth year of murder and mayhem, writes Suzanne Downes.
Our members range in age from our oldest, Denis, who has just passed his ninetieth birthday, to the youngster of the group, me, who is nearer to sixty than fifty and not prepared to admit any more than that! The group was the brainchild of Barbara Fagan Speake, who began writing fiction just before her retirement and quickly realised that she wanted contact with other writers. She asked in her local library if they had a crime writing group and was told: ‘No – but why don’t you start your own?’
