I’m proud of the Shreveport Writers Club members that did readings today at HOSTS. We had a great time also watching the dancers from The Gems Dance Company and we were immersed with art from Kalandra Kyelle Jones and Adam King . We also appreciate the members that came out in support. Thank you!!

We will be starting our readings tomorrow at 1pm.
Anyone with books can bring them to set up starting at 11am. I will have a small table for us to share.
There will be two other artists vendors, performances by The Gems Dance Troupe and the drumming group Log Jam.
There will also be a special performance of a live band collab with the dancers.
So, even if you do not come to read or sell, there will be plenty of local artists to support.
The event will be from 12-4pm. You are allowed to come and go.

We will be meeting at the Broadmoor Branch Library on June 4th from 10am-12pm.
We will discuss the HOSTS event on June 12th.
Bring any work you would like to have a simple and short critique on during our round robin.
If you would like to share a small piece or excerpt without a critique, that is fine as well.
You do not have to bring in writing to be a part of the meeting. Having fellowship with fellow writers or those interested is our goal.
