We Make Writing Makes Us greedy for the right words and the thrill of creating when we know we have done our best work. It epitomises the concept that when we express ourselves, we become ourselves.

For those of us now having escaped the shackles of our working lives, we are now able to be our own masters in achieving our goals in the third trimester of our lives. We may now go where our imagination takes us.

You will find inside the covers of this wonderful literary potpourri, a collection of special works by very talented people in their third age.

A tongue-in-cheek comedy tale that takes us back to the court of King James I of England.

A mouth-watering offering of sweet treats from eastern Europe in a mini-cook book presentation.

Memoirs of life from the heart. Reflecting in many ways how to keep these memories alive and with us forever

Science fiction adventures from another space and time...and much much more.

The collection relates feelings of joy and humour; of life and death; and everything in between. Our class encourages and teaches a variety of writing media, allowing the authors a freedom of expression in their works.

The broad spectrum of works includes memoirs, short stories, poems, cookery, novel extracts and exercises undertaken during the Whittlesea U3A Creative Writing class.

We know you will enjoy the variety of experiences that our senior Victorians have shared within these pages.
