We met at the library for our Pen-to-Paper on April 5th. We had three new members bringing the total of attendees to 16. The group enjoyed their stories and the new members joined in the gentle critiques and suggestions for the other members. We are very grateful to the Greg Grunow for accommodating our large group. We have several authors write poetry and their ability to tell a story in just a few words always fascinates us.
The Piedmont Community Band of Windmore has asked writers to again partner with them in the Second Annual Memorial Day event at the American Legion. The date is May 30th. Writers can submit any poem or short story about Memorial Day or about Military Men. On Memorial Day, writers may read their own submissions, or can have a reader assigned to read them if writers prefer to do so.
Send your poem or story to sect@windmorefoundation.org and Fran Cecere will forward it to the Band Program Chair.
The Pen-to-Paper group is continuing to accept submission for the new Anthology. Please send your submissions using a Word Document to Fran at fran_cecere@yahoo.com. If you would like to help with the anthology please email Fran. We will be starting the process soon.
Our next meeting is on the first Tuesday, May 3 at 10 A.M. to noon and then in the evening from 5 P.M. All writers are welcome to attend either or both of the sessions.
The prompts for this month are:
1. May I . . .
or
2 Blossoms in Bliss
If you write to the prompts please keep the word count to about 500 words. You can also bring another story to read if you want.
