"Come on down..."
The Writers Forum meetings feature an entertaining and interesting mix of diverse
speakers and topics, workshops, and open mike sessions of
original material. Together they provide a collection of tips on writing, publishing and promoting an author's work, hands on practice
and a wealth of life experiences. These each provide inspiration, understanding and confidence. The public is always welcome.
