On April 2nd, we will be holding our club meeting at the Shreve Memorial Library Broadmoor Branch from 10am-12pm.
We will focus on flash writing, casual critiquing, and a discussion on storytelling led by ML Dumar.
Meet in Study Room A and bring a sample of some of your work if you would like to get a general overview on it. You don’t have to bring work to have critiqued. Just listening and discussing others’ work is as beneficial to learning and growing as well.
This is a casual writer’s support group here to connect local writers with other writers.
*There is a $20 yearly fee for the group (It helps pay for Zoom for online club meetings, future contests, and club activities.)
Visitors are always welcome to the meetings to see if this club is a beneficial group to your writing journey.
We hope to see you there and always remember to “write on”!

We got another limerick in for our Limerick Challenge.
There once was a fellow in bossier
Who thought it was time for some closure
So he laid on the floor
Beneath an old door
And no one could see that he lay there

We will be posting the entries for our limerick challenge as they are sent to us. You have until March 17th to submit your entry.
Our first entry is by Tiffany Pennywell
Our 2nd entry is from Earnest McDaniel
There once was a couple quite average
The wife had the brains in the marriage
So she took him by hand
And explained to the man
Suffrage and vassalage…and leverage
