Come meet other local writers and let creativity bloom! Looking to make this group writer friendly, helpful and encouraging to new and experienced writers. Critique for growth will be encouraged- but it should be appropriate and given in a helpful manner!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once upon a morning bright and cheery, while I pondered dark and dreary
Over my latest curious volume that is surely going to soar,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a rapping,
As my fingers started tapping, tapping creating words galore..
`'Tis finally my muse,' I muttered, `tapping out words galore-
Only this, and nothing more.'
