Erskine Writers Meeting 10th September 2024

 Today’s meeting opened with a brief update regarding our search for a larger venue for our meetings. Options are still being explored.

Lorna put forward a proposal for a fundraiser to be held at our AGM on 24th September. She has kindly offered to bake some of her tasty treats for the group and all donations collected will be sent to Macmillan Cancer Support. 

Hilary kick-started our first writing exercise of the new term with her ‘Magic Box of Treats’. She placed numerous small boxes on the table and each member of the group was instructed  to select one. Each box contained a handful of trinkets which served as prompts for a story. An interesting and enjoyable afternoon was had by all, sharing the stories that evolved from everyone’s ‘box of tricks’. Thanks go to Hilary for providing us with a very thought- provoking lesson.
