Dear members and friends, The cool days of Fall are fast approaching, as we say goodbye to the hot summer days. There's nothing like a cool breeze on your skin as you walk outside and see the falling leaves blanketing the landscape with brilliant colors. If you have written a poem about Fall, feel free to share it with us (or at the meeting).

Our next writers' group Zoom meeting will take place Saturday Oct. 17 from 1- 4pm.  We have simplified the process of attending the Zoom meeting and removed the forms that you had to fill out in the past. Just click on the link below, and it will take you directly to the meeting.

Tentative schedule

1pm - Share your poetry and 2 page essay - suggested topic for the essay - write about a famous person in history without saying their name. We will guess who it is.Also, if we have time, we'll do a writing exercise. 

2pm - Critique session - please submit your manuscripts (from 6 to 15 pages) no later than Oct. 10 to me. (note: we will allow a five minute break just before the presentation for you to stand up and move around - to alleviate any backaches!)

3pm - Presentation by Dr. John G. Panagiotou on his new book The Path to Oikonomia with Jesus Christ as our Lighthouse.Please tell your friends about it. I'm reading his book (in English) and it's very well written, filled with much wisdom and advice. For example, he explains what "oikonomia" means in English, first breaking it down to its simplest form "oikos."
