3)
Hellenic Writers' Workshop meeting - Saturday, September 26, 2015 at
the Hellenic Center off of Democracy Blvd. It starts at 10:00 AM and
finishes around 12:00PM.
- This workshop is
limited to those who have written works that are longer than 20 pages
(includes short stories, novels, memoirs, nonfiction) and would like to
have them critiqued. It requires commitment of time, as we all will
send in our works at least a week before the meeting to give everyone a
chance to read and comment. The session meets at least once a month, if
not more, from September - December. Then it will resume in March and go
until June. This will allow everyone time to write and also bypass the
inclement weather during Jan-Feb. If you are interested in joining this
group, please email Patty at: patty@pattyapostolides.com
As always, there will be refreshments at these meetings, and plenty of smiles!
If
you have a friend that you would like to bring along who might be
interested in joining the group, please feel free to do so. We are
bilingual and speak both English and Greek.
Looking forward to seeing you all again!
Patty
