At our October meeting, we welcomed new member Dave Hicks whose specialty is poetry. We heard one of his pieces at Round Robin Reading time and look forward to more of his work. Shirley Brown's Flash Writing topics elicited some fun writing, as did Bonnie McEwan's Writers' Tips on characterization.
Don't forget that Shreveport Writers Club meetings in November and December will NOT be on the fourth Saturday! In November, we will meet on the 21st, before Thanksgiving, at our usual meeting time of 10 till noon. In December, the meeting will be a Christmas party, combined with the awards ceremony for our contest, on Saturday, the 12th. We'll have the community room at the front of the library from 11:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Start creating a short Christmas/holiday piece to read, or find an old favorite by an author you admire. In either case, remember we'll be a little pressed for time, so keep it short!
Since 1935, Shreveport Writers Club has been a support group for writers. SWC includes writers from all stages of life. Many of us are published authors of fiction, non-fiction, or poetry. Others simply enjoy sharing their thoughts in written form with other people who love words.
