Writing Your Life Story

Ever wanted to write all about yourself, your life, all the things you did when younger? Here's an opportunity to gain an insight in how to do it. Writing Your Life Story is a workshop scheduled for Wednesday 25th November, 10.00-3.30, at Bentilee Library, Stoke-on-Trent. Lunch isn't provided, so take along sandwiches, Cornish pastries, sausage rolls...

The publicity says that the workshop is open to anyone of any age, and that you don't need to have done anything spectacular (such as climb Everest). No writing expereince is necessary.

The workshop is free. To reserve a place phone 01782 231315

Next Meeting

The next StOW meeting is scheduled for the 4th September, at 10.00 am at the usual venue -- the Bentilee neighbourhood Centre. All are welcome -- just come along and bring something you've written. You may want to read it out to the group (you don't have to!).

SToW meeting

Yesterday's Stoke-on-Writing meeting was fun ... and very useful. The formal part was covered promptly, which allowed us ample time for reading one's own work -- and receiving comments. Nick Corder turned up, and his insights were astute and constructive (they were for me!).

The next meeting is scheduled for Saturday 13 June at 10.00 a.m. at the Bentilee Neighbourhood Centre. If you've not been to this venue, it's on Dawlish Road (post code ST2 0EU.

First post

Today, the Stoke-on-Writing (StoW) group met at the Bentilee Community Centre, at which we discussed our future. The meeting was very production, the minutes of which will be posted at a later date. The chief actions and decisions were the election of a chair, secretary and treasurer; and of course, the naming of the group.
