Hey everyone....the submissions for the TWF contest were printed in the Clarksdale Paper. I heard Billy's submission was printed and then I saw A day on the Farm by Cal Trout was also printed. If anyone has a copy of Billy's ...please get us one for our scrap book.
Lots of things going on for writers and mentors. Joe Campbell who is an author from Indianola invited us to attend a day in his honor tomorrow Oct 14th. A book signing is planned at the library and entertainment at the BB King museum. I will try to get the flyer to you all as soon as I get it. I will be there and they will be interviewing me as well for the "writers in the Delta" episode and the documentary on his life.
THe Friends of the Library has appointed me to be in charge of a newsletter. We are going to involve the winners of the essay contest that they had in April as mentors. Hopefully we can continue this and help our library with PR and a newsletter. ANy volunteers ? :)
Also we need volunteers to be on the Writing Mentor Committee. This is a grant program that will involve 5 students from the 3 high schools in the area to get motivated about writing, and maybe learn a few things. For more information, please email John Mayo.
Dont forget you all , meeting is this thursday at 6:30 at the Cutrer Mansion and we have critique group on Sat. at 9 am. Invite your friends. Our guest speaker is Sue Dye, famous author and poet. This will be a fun meeting.
