Our Next Meeting

Just a reminder about next week’s meeting at The Room at the Top. It will be a creative writing exercise based on a photograph or postcard. If you would all like to bring one along then we can select our choice for the evening. The last photographic exercises we held were a lot of fun, coupled with some really great imaginative writing. So hope you can come along. The meeting takes place on Tuesday 17th June with its usual start time at 7.30pm.

We have just heard from our friend Angela Petch who has some good news. She says:

“Found out I have been shortlisted for an on-line flash fiction competition.

You can vote but don’t feel you have to. The judges stress it isn’t a personality competition!

Fellow writers, it is a fun concept - and free to enter! Rare these days. Only rules are it has to be less than 500 words - hyphenated words count as 2....so, be careful of that. And you have to incorporate the 3 designated words into the story....the stories I have read on their site are quite wacky - so it is a chance to let your imagination rip!

“Feedback would be very welcome - but why don’t you have a go? The site is www.mashstories.com Go to home page and scroll down under the competition heading and click on short listed stories. Angela xx”

Hope to see everyone on Tuesday so until then...

Keep Scribbling!!!
