PENS OF PRAISE CHRISTIAN WRITERS GROUP MEETING
Tuesday, November 20, 2018 6:30 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. Faith Church 2201 42nd Street, Manitowoc, WI 54220 Faith Church is located next to Festival Foods Not far from the Manitowoc exit off Interstate 43 The Chicken Buzzer Meeting of Readings & Insights is our topic this month. Susan Marlene will direct this class by staggering 5 minutes of reading shares with 5 minute instruction on perfecting the craft by using brain science. We will keep this writer/teaching/writer pattern flowing during our teaching segment. Pens Assignment: For Fiction and non-fiction writers wishing to participate in reading their work to the group: Pick up to five pages and edit them before Pens to reading at Pens. Write a scene or sample with purpose- who, what, where, when, why. If the action or dialogue or information doesn't move the story forward then cut that before the meeting. What does the antagonist want? What gets in the way? What is his/her reaction and feelings and thoughts about what happened? Or for non-fiction—What is your topic, who are you reaching and what is the message focus for tonight? Susan will provide information from a popular how-to book on writing. Remember, leaving your reader inspired with excellent take-away is like an open invitation for your reader to return! PROMPT: Truly Thankful or Turkey on the Rise We are a safe place to share. Bring your favorite coffee or tea with you! As always, if you have any questions or concerns don’t hesitate to contact Becky McLafferty @ [email protected] or Susan Marlene@ [email protected]

If you have that burning desire to communicate and explore, come peruse my pages, teachings, and short stories.
