HEY BAYOU WRITERS,
Happy May!!! I hope everyone is making time for their writing. It's been difficult for me to stay on track, and I know I am not alone. That's why our meetups and write-ins are so very special. Getting together with a room full of fellow writers is motivating, and I feel so lucky for our community. Thanks to everyone who participates.
As we begin a new month, it's not too late to set some writing goals! I have to readjust my objectives monthly and quarterly. You can do it! With nothing but improving your writing (and editing) in mind, this week's meeting is a MUST! We will discuss how to readjust goals and best practices for reaching your writing targets with tips and tricks that will help you with your work. This will be a discussion-based talk where you can share your ideas, too. Whoop whoop!!! I can't wait!!!
In addition to the discussion/presentation, we'll also have time for Readings:
LET'S SHARE OUR WORK
We are a writing group... so please bring in anything you are working on and want to share! New members are especially encouraged to bring something to read. It can be flash fiction, a short story, journal writing, or a couple of pages from your larger manuscript. If you write it, we want to hear it. The only request is to keep it under 1,000 words.
GREAT PLACE TO EAT
We have found a wonderful home at Bosco's in Mandeville. They have a great private room, excellent service, and wonderful food. They are not charging us for the space, but if you can, please plan to eat dinner and dessert or order drinks to help them for helping us.
PLEASE SAVE THE DATES:
May 16th, Zoom (Online) Meeting, and May 30th, which will be a READING EVENT at Bosco's!!!! We need about 12 readers for this, and you can email me directly to get on the list.
I'm looking forward to seeing everyone in person on Thursday, May 2nd.
Until then, Happy Writing.
