What happened to that New Year’s resolution to start writing a family memoir or journal every day? Suddenly it is September, and those good intentions have been buried under a hundred more pressing matters. Consider the start of a new school year as the perfect time to unearth those writing resolutions.
Fremont Area Writers, whose motto is “writers helping writers,” can help writers get started at the completely non-judgmental Zoom Social-Write-in. All are welcome from absolute beginners to published professionals.
At the end of 10 minutes, each person will read their response. There is no expectation that the result will be polished or complete.
How the Write-In works:
At the Write-In, the computer randomly assigns four writers to each Zoom room. Writers are given several prompts to write about for 10 minutes. At the end of 10 minutes, each person will read their response. There is no expectation that the result will be polished or complete. This is not a critique session. Writers are then reassigned to a Zoom room and follow the same process.
FAW also meets on Zoom from 2 – 4pm the fourth Saturday of each month to hear a speaker discuss writing or publishing. The speaker for the Sept. 27 meeting is writer and educator Irene Zabytko who will talk about how to write a query that will catch a publisher’s attention.
To join the Write-In or the general meeting, request the Zoom meeting link at sc**************@***oo.com. More information is available at cwc-fremontareawriters.org.
