This Tuesday (tomorrow, 4th June) sees us staging our next meeting. This time the onus is on me to deliver a passage or two from my ongoing novel followed, from my point of view, some feedback however critical. Then, and perhaps more significantly, we will share our 500 word stories on "Photo Album."
The meeting begins at 7.30.
This last fortnight has been quite stressful... The first and ongoing problem is with HSBC. For some reason I believe they think we are a business and not a group of like minded writers. We still have no access to our accounts. HSBC ignore the fact that their own Felixstowe branch fouled up five years ago - their mistake which is causing so much distress - Hard black and white evidence of our meetings outlining the appointment of signatories five years ago is not sufficient! Every time they demand more and more information, each time it is supplied, it doesn't meet their criteria. Even the Ombudsman has failed to acknowledge our communication. It goes on and on. Somewhere along the way HSBC has to allow access to our funds. The media and the MP spring to mind...
Additionally, we still have a hiccup with the cover design for the anthology but, hopefully, this will soon be sorted.
See you tomorrow at Scribblers!
