Creative November Meeting

Brrrr....its cold out there! Even in the cold and darkness a few members ventured out to our meeting. We took this time to 'play' some creative writing games and exercises and chomp down on some treats that Ms. Lois so graciously donated. Our first exercise was prompted by bags of goodies. Each bag had 3 items...we had 3 min to trade and then had 10 min to write a story about these items....must be connected. Great stories and a variety of thoughts on the subject.
OUr next exercise was to concentrate on descriptions. One exercise that helps is to describe an item in 3 words...kind of like doing an ad. It is harder than you think!
Our last exercise was to write about a gift box...what was in it and who were you going to give it to.

We also discussed a time and place for our Xmas social, our Sat critique meeting and possibly moving meetings to a sat. Well get more opinions and come up with a game plan.

Our next meeting is Dec. 6th for a critique meeting at the Hospital cafeteria. Hope to have a good group. See you then, have a great thanksgiving!
