2006 so far...
January brought us a 'general information' meeting. Dot Hatfield presided
over a lively discussion of the year to come, and introductions of old and new members, with updates on what everybody was
doing.
In February, Rhonda Roberts worked with The Gallery to sponsor a reception/workshop.
The Gallery is operated by the Searcy Arts Council and is located in the historic Black House, which isn't really
black, but named after the original owners. Refreshments were furnished by the Arts Council, and sessions on poetry,
short stories, and newspaper columns were presented by Chris Henderson, Dot Hatfield, and Patsy Pipkin.
Patsy Pipkin arranged for a speaker at our March Meeting, Dennis Bennett related to us
the events, troubles, successes, and hopes he has experienced in searching, finding and working with an agent on a book.
While his story does not have a 'happy' ending yet, the information he passed on will be invaluable to others preparing to
enter that area. Thanks, Dennis and Patsy!
Marie Medsker presented a program on query letters and proposals at our April meeting.
She offered advice that she had received from our old mentor, David Roper, as well as information that she gleaned from
research. Marie also gave us a little background on how she became a writer. It was a very interesting program.
