A new writers' group will hold its first monthly meeting with subsequent meetings scheduled for the third Tuesday of each month.
All aspiring writers are invited to come together. Facilitator Eila Algood will moderate the meetings to give the participants a chance to practice writing, discuss writing skills, share their work, enjoy useful feedback, and share the joys and frustrations of the writing life. Algood, a poet and writer herself, has participated in other writing groups. She counts herself among the many writers who find value in the support of a writers’ network.
Anyone interested in writing is invited to the monthly meetings—beginning writers to published authors, the timid, the brave, serious writers or amateur scribblers, the prolific and especially—the blocked.
Writers are invited to bring samples of their work if they care to share, however, this is not necessary. All are welcome to listen, to learn, and to be inspired. Algood asks that everyone bring a pen and paper for writing.
Program schedule is subject to change. Program is intended for patrons ages 12 and older. For additional information on the writers’ group at North Kohala Public Library or to arrange special accommodation, contact Janet Lam at 889-6655.
