WOTA will meet in room 17 of Musser Public Library on Tuesday, May 21 from 6-8 pm. Note that room 017 is the Makerspace room on the bottom basement floor (elevator accessible). As usual, bring a pen, bring a friend, bring a short work to share!
If you need a writing prompt why not take another crack at the April challenge: GAZEBO, BLOOM, GRANDILOQUENCE, LIGHTBULB, QUIETLY, DOWNHILL, CONNECT, ERRATIC, TUNNEL. We didn’t get to hear these last time.
Pearl City Press is thrilled to announce the publication of Penny and the Woodland Fairies, the first in Farmer Bob’s Fairy Tales series, by WOTA member Bob Bancks. Many of us have heard these tales come together during meetings; now you can have the whole book! Tales for the young and young at heart.
