Greetings!

We hope you are well, and that the muses have been inspiring you to continue your writing

We have so much information to share with you!

1. We are seeking any members who may be interested in serving as a critique group facilitator (OR have experience in group facilitation). Some members are actively engaged in critique groups; others are yet to be involved. We will offer you facilitator
training this month as well as helping you secure a group.

Please plan to attend training at one of these sessions:
● Saturday, March 14 @10 AM
● Saturday, March 28 @ 1 PM
● Monday, March 30 @ 7 PM.
If interested, please RSVP to attend ONE of these organizational meetings RSVP to lkellyrobb46@gmail.com (Please put FACILITATOR in the subject line!)

2. Scott Slechta is facilitating a group for writers who want to begin their writing journey. I will offer techniques and strategies to help you build your skills and abilities AND your confidence. I, like all other facilitators, want to encourage, support, and foster your writing. If you are interested in joining this beginning writer group, RSVP to Scott at Scott.Allan.Slechta@gmail.com. (Please put BEGINNER GROUP in the subject line!)

3. With the focus on developing facilitators & critique groups, we hope to have them all established by April for all interested members!
