We held a very lively meeting which was preceded, as always, with the customary coffee and cakes/snacks, many of which were home made. Several members read their work out, which included extracts and complete pieces of prose and poetry. The themes and styles were wonderfully diverse – there was definitely something for everyone – and the standard of writing was excellent. There was a sense of achievement as it was acknowledged that we had reached the deadline for manuscript submissions to our 2019 anthology: Driftwood and everyone is looking forward to seeing it in all its glorious printed form with illustrations. We are all eagerly looking forward to the opportunity of seeing next year’s 2020 anthology go on to Amazon/Kindle.

Do you want to write or are you a burgeoning writer and looking for a supportive group to give you feedback? Come and drop in on us on a Saturday morning at Eau Gallie Library from 9.30 a.m. to 11.30 a.m. Turn right as soon as you come in the main door. We are very friendly and you will be made most welcome. We meet every other Saturday so check here for upcoming dates or on our Facebook page. We would love to see you. You can choose to read or not at any meeting and our feedback will never be hurtful or judgmental. It will be helpful and positive.

Next meeting is Saturday 22nd June 2019. We hope to see you there.
