Welcome new member Debbie!
Karen and Patty discussed their writing coach Esther and finding their main character’s voice. Both have been patient throughout the ongoing editing process despite making countless revisions and penning numerous versions.
Patty and Karen explained NaNoWriMo to Debbie.
Valia is working on a picture book A Bird, A Tree, and a Volcano. It is geared towards children ages 5-8. Members suggested formatting changes and helped with a few minor grammatical issues. Rachael discussed the science behind the story and offered a few suggestions. Valia then read “Roosters of Hawaii” which was featured on the Who Writes Short Shorts website earlier this month.
Jackie read “Ceramic Attraction,” a short memoir she wrote for the 2019 edition of From the Edge of the Prairie anthology due out later this year. She is also submitting a few pictures for inclusion in the publication.
Patty read “Chapter Three: Heaven Slipping Away” from her novel The Iron Ladies.
Luneil plans to continue working on Barty, the Clumsy Vampire.
Next Meeting: Wednesday, May 8, 2019 at Rosati’s in Schererville
