Erskine Writers Meeting 26th September 2023

Meetings held on 12th of September featured Hilary's 'Box Of Tricks' and our meeting on the 19th saw guest speaker Val Thornton delivered her workshop on educational writing.

Today's was the writers AGM which included the President's report, Treasurers report and Secretary's report. We discussed the new office bearers with one major change seeing Sandra step down as President and the mantle being handed over to Jeannie. We received volunteers for next year's syllabus meeting. We acknowledged the successful application for the Live Literature Funding from Scottish Book Trust which granted all four applications for this session. Annual afternoon tea was discussed and agreed that we will return to the Willows Restaurant for a second year on the 21st of November.

The group showed their appreciation from our outgoing president who has done a fantastic job over the last three years and we know she will be a continual arm of support to the group and Jeannie our new president.

We finished the afternoon with two readings Rob with 'From my bedroom window' and John ' Celebrity Tom Cruise.
