LIBRARY TO HOST WRITERS' GROUP MEETING

LIBRARY TO HOST WRITERS' GROUP MEETING

Following calls for expressions interest in reactivating writers' groups, an initial meeting will be held at Beach Library Cannonvale on Thursday 30 May at 2:00 p.m. to decide future venue options and days/time for meetings. The library previously hosted two groups – Creative Ink, for recreational writers, and Writers of the Whitsundays (WOW), for published and aspiring authors, and is happy to provide the opportunity for interested writers to get together to exchange ideas, critique efforts, and share insights on all things writing.

With the 4th annual Whitsunday Writers' Festival just around the corner in July at Coral Sea Resort, and the reintroduction this year of Queensland Literary Awards and associated grant incentives for emerging writers, it is a good time to dust off the pens and get those creative ideas down on paper.

For further information, or if you would like to be part of a group, but are unable to attend the initial set up meeting, please phone Beach Library 49461366 to have your name added to contact list for future meetings and events.

Hell calls for reunion

On 29th June 2013 we are holding a reunion party for all those who were here in the 1970's and the 1980's at the Airlie Beach bowls club at a cost of $20 which includes finger food at 4pm
There will be live music and many old friends coming along and we would love to have you join us.
We are asking everyone coming to write a short history of their life and reasons for coming to Airlie when you did.
These facts will be put together in an eventual book so please send your info to me at dalehell@hotmail.com for me to compile the stories which I know will be many and varied.
If you are coming please let us know at my email or phone 0416273598 for catering purposes

I remain yours sincerely
