End of Session Christmas Party

Members of Erskine Writers enjoyed a lovely afternoon at the Christmas get together for the final meeting of the year. As you can see from the photos, the table was laden with lots of delicious bites to eat and members read a good variety of short Christmas themed fiction, non-fiction and poetry.

               

The group begins the new session on Tuesday 5th January 2016, when members may bring open manuscripts to read. We shall also be looking at story endings - an important part of any fiction! We always welcome new members to the group at any stage in their writing journey.

End of Session and Garden Party

Last Tuesday saw the final formal meeting of Erskine Writers until the new session begins again in September. Joan Fleming did a splendid job of taking over the helm as acting President since the beginning of the year, after Joan Lougheed moved away to the other side of the Clyde. The group expressed its grateful thanks to Joan when Myra presented her with flowers on our behalf.

The new committee details and syllabus for 2013-2014 will be on the blog during the summer.

Yesterday, we enjoyed our annual garden party buffet lunch at Sandra’s lovely home. A great time was had by one and all and we soon made short work of the food and drink! The following are random photos on the patio, including the beautiful show of bluebells.

  

 

The recent schools story competition for the Albert Hammond Award has now been judged and the certificates and prizes will be presented to the students over the next few weeks. Hopefully, we’ll be able to include more details of that soon.

Have a lovely summer and please drop by the blog now and then for updates before September.
