Meeting - Saturday Sept. 10

Our meeting this Saturday will discuss:


Stepping stones to publication: 
social media and periodical/anthology opportunities
These are basic opportunities to "get our names out there". We are not setting our sights too high when we aim at publishing a book, but there are steps we can accomplish that will help us along the way. 


As usual, our second hour will be critiquing each other's work. Please email your piece ahead of time to allow us to review your work before the meeting.


And bring us an update on your goals discussed last time. 





Looking forward to seeing you on the 10th at 2:00 pm.
