The group was initially split between being available in the evening and others in the day. There were also differences of approach.

However Graham remained involved for a while with the day group and with the anthologies.<\/span>

<\/span>The day group met at Yarm Library where the class was held. The original group consisted of  former students of Creative Writing<\/i> but after Write Around<\/b>, include a wider intake of writers that had been involved in other groups or contributed to Outlet.<\/span>

<\/span>The group produced an annual anthology called Analects<\/b> with a competition to generate new material, participated in the annual Write Around Festival<\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n
