Hello everyone!

Should you find yourself in need of some diversion from all the holiday festivities and preparations, here are some of the ADULT writing related activities you might consider participating in.

All of them are free of charge, and will be held at the Dunham Public Library in Whitesboro, unless otherwise noted. If you are not already on our email list and would like to learn about these and other group projects (such as our open-submission e-books and "round robins" in progress), drop us a line and we'll add your name:   whitesborowriters@gmail.com

If you know of any other events not shown below, such as book signings, readings, other writing group meetings in our area, etc., please drop us an email and we'll update our listing.
