WRITERS’ CIRCLES – since 2009

Writers gather to talk about their writings, to learn tricks and techniques about the story writing craft, be it fiction or nonfiction. Here’s an early group when all met in my home. Now one Circle still does, one meets either online or in my home (their choice) and the third is all Zoom.
