Better than your average...

The quality of writing at each Scribblers meeting never fails to amaze. The homework theme of "Happiness" brought many smiling faces with tales of absolute excellence.

After hearing Tony's masterpiece it was unanimously agreed that we would never look on 'The Charge of the Light Brigade' in the same way again! The meeting brought so much pleasure and much discussion after each work. To be honest you could not get the same kind of entertainment in any theatre or cinema.

For those who missed the meeting they also missed an opportunity to share some of the best writing for many months. Hopefully more members will be present next time round when we hold our 'genre' writing evening - all present having drawn their genre. If you are intending to come along next meeting and missed tonight, then please contact Barry for your genre. That meeting will be on Tuesday 16th October and is the last one before charges have to be raised.

A reminder that from 6th October the annual fee of £25 giving free admission to all meetings in the following year, or, for those who prefer to pay meeting by meeting, the fee will be £3. These fees come into operation from 6th November.

Felixstowe Scribblers are sponsoring a Bloomsbury workshop on "How To Get Published" at the Book Festival next year. Details of location and time will be forwarded when known. Regular Scribblers members can reserve free places in advance of the event.

Finally on a happy note - our Les will be 80 years young next Tuesday, (9th October) - such a great character, so popular with everyone and he is a very useful writer too! Have a good one Les!
