Pen and Ink Writers Group
The Pen and Ink Writers Group gathers on the third Monday of each month to read short stories, poems or essays, all inspired by a a pre-selected word or phrase. The writings are entertaining, spiritually enlightening, and creatively fulfilling for all. Share your stories and build up your own writing skills through practice and presentation. It takes desire, invention, and perseverance to be a writer. Come join us. Hear positive comments from other writers not only about your work, but the work of the other members.
