Our Next Meeting...

... is coming up fast - between now and then we have to put the clocks forward an hour and lose an hours sleep, celebrate Mother's Day and make sure our homework assignment is ready.

As time is running out we need stories and poems from each of our existing members who attend meetings (and maybe one or two others who have moved away from the area in the last few months).

Our homework this time is to write a story for inclusion in the forthcoming anthology – maybe some of you already have worthy work ready. Maybe some are still working on theirs - there is no deadline set for submissions at present so keep working! 

Under normal circumstances there is a maximum 1,000 word limit but this time possibly the word count could be increased to an upper limit of between 1,500 and 2,000 words. However, if you have written more lengthy pieces - or are in the process of doing so - then perhaps reading an extract would be acceptable as we like everyone attending our meetings to be able to share their work. 

Obviously with 75 pages to fill everyone will want to be published and, depending on availability of space, there may be the opportunity to have two stories or poems included in the final work.

Hope to see you all on Tuesday in The Room at the Top, (start time 7.30pm).

Until then, 

Keep Scribbling!!!
