Writing

I’ve just joined a writers’ group in my new hometown, Hervey Bay. It’s a big achievement for me as I’m usually not much of a ‘joiner’. However… as I don’t know a lot of people here and am trying to take my writing to a different level I figured it would be great to meet others with similar interests. And, I must say, after two gatherings, that’s certainly been the case.

As a newcomer to writers’ groups I really had no idea what to expect. The group seems pretty structured which may (or may not) be the norm. I like the fact that we have the opportunity to participate in writing exercises and – given the time of year – I arrived amidst a ‘homework’ exercise involving a Christmas game.
