trinityvixenSo, writing group is on. I'm suggesting a first meeting for next Thursday, November 4 (my God, it's November already!?), at Carrie's and my apartment. Meet time is 8:00 pm, allowing for travel time and late work hours both, but flexibly rearranged as necessary.
For the first meeting, I'm requesting now TWO things: a piece of work to share (including 5-8 copies, just to be sure all have), and a few book recommendations. Yes, I'm adding a reading portion to our writing group because some of the best writers are the best readers. On Thursday next, please have in mind the titles of one or two books that you've been wanting to read, have read and love, have read and want further opinion, or just saw in the store and liked the cover. I'm encouraging haven't-reads because they're more likely to have not been read by others, especially new books. Then, we as a group will choose one and plan to have read it two meetings later. So, after our first meeting, we'll have a second, and then at the third, people should come back having read the book we selected.
All further writing/reading group updates are going to be on the lj group 'ourbooks.' Please, friend this group so you see updates on your friends page, or, if you don't wish to do that, please be sure to check it for meeting time, writing contributors for the week, book for the month, and any in-between postings people make (long fictions, or just pieces you want to just lj workshop are what I'm thinking here).
WHO WANTS TO GO SEE THE MOVIE 'SAW' THIS SATURDAY???? C'mon, y'all were psyched to go when we saw, ha ha, the trailer in front of Resident Evil: Apocalypse. I'm thinking, if we can get it, east side, like Orpheum, and we can play dress-ups for Halloween a day early at our apartment. At the very least, we can just get some drinks in us before we go. Either way, meeting up before hand is a good idea. I'm thinking a reeeeeal late movie, like I said, just so it's officiallly Halloween when we see it (further justfying costumes). SO LET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT TO GO, PEOPLE!!!!
