About CLAWS
Our club was founded in 2019, right before the dark years, by a ragtag group of passionate writers wanting to build a home for creatives at Melbourne Uni.
​
We act as a foundation for you to pursue writing, express yourself, and share your work with friends.
Join us now - if you're feeling homesick!!
