Point Pleasant Writers Guild enjoys lazy days of summer

 

 

Summer…a time to take life easy, enjoy having the children home from school, take that long awaited trip to the beach or wherever, soak up the sun and start that flower garden.  Even writers take time off occasionally, and that explains why Guild meetings in June and July have been on the light side thus far this summer. 

 

In recent weeks, Guild members Joe Ingerick and Patrecia Gray have written about fathers in honor of Father’s Day and flags in honor of Flag Day.  Ilse Burris read “Why?” the age-old question that is essential to a writer’s soul.  

 

Marilyn Clarke has been sharing a novel in progress tentatively titled “The Lunch Club”, about six long-time friends, five of whom are going on a road trip together.  Road trips seem to be a common theme this summer, as Carol Newberry has read a short story about two college friends who go on a road trip together, one of whom is meeting her father for the first time.

Recently the Guild was paid a visit by Max Price.  Price is from Ravenswood and belongs to the Writers Group in Ripley.  It is always nice to meet other writers and hear their stories and experiences with the writing process.
