Our first Virtual Meeting due to Covid 19. Here's hoping we can get together in person in May. Using Google Zoom: Becky, Emmett, Michelle Renee, Caleb, Nancy, Ev, Don, Joanne and Scott (apologies if I missed anyone!)
April is National Poetry Month. The Swanton Library is hosting a virtual poetry read on Tuesday April 28th 2020. If anyone is interested or knows anyone who is interested in reading, writing, submitting poetry for this event, or sharing their favorite poems please EMAIL Caleb
The Swanton Library is hosting a virtual book club. So far the meetings have been weekly. A discussion topic is offered and people share their reads related to this topic. The next meeting is Wednesday April 15th. EMAIL the library for details and an invite to the meeting.
We discussed Covid 19 and the effect it is having on all of us. Renee mentioned "Isolation Diaries". The discussion generated a story prompt. "Uphill Tuesday." What does this term mean to you?
Several members shared their current writing projects.
Emmett read a portion of the story inspired by the highway sign mentioned last month. Story idea: a plague that killed everyone except the terminally ill.
Judy read a piece about what happened when she broke her diet and ate meat after a long absence (It wasn't pretty)
Nancy read her 'Things Not To Do' list re Covid 19
Ev read a song about Covid 19.
Caleb brought up the singer/songwriter John Prine and read a portion of the lyrics to "That's the Way the World Goes Round"
Our next meting is schedule for May 14th at 6 pm. Becky will send out a google zoom invite if we have to meet virtually, otherwise see you all at the Swanton Library!
