24.01.2022 Sharing this from a friends page.

24.01.2022 We have arranged for a poet, Deb Stewart, to run an online poetry workshop on Saturday, September 19. She has requested that those signing up to the 4 hour workshop (two sessions of 2 hours with a 30 minute break between) fill in this questionnaire and return it preferably by August 21 to give her the best idea on how to cater for participants. More info on the workshop coming soon. Members will receive the questionnaire by email. Anyone else who is interested can message us for the form.

20.01.2022 We had a productive meeting at Brooke's unit with Jane, Adam, Neil, myself and Brooke. The household cat, Johnny had a keen interest in what we were doing ... or did he just want cuddles?

05.01.2022 This book's sequel, 'Stella and the Salvers', is due for release soon. Meantime, if you haven't yet read the popular 'Stella and the Elephant', grab a copy at Amazon, et al. Happy Reading!

05.01.2022 Our workshop with poet and musician Deb Stewart was a hit. I (Paul) found it most inspiring and motivating, and by the end I had the bones for several poems to work on and add to my collection. The workshop also gave me ideas to pass on to members for workshops as well as new ways to present poetry. Thanks go to Deb and all the participants for the input and feedback.
