November FWA Meeting

All,

Well, once again, we'll be meeting this Saturday, November 3, 2007 at Leapin' Lizard Bar and Grill in Cape Coral, from 1:00 - 3:00 PM for late lunch, discussion, and our regular writing challenge.

This month's challenge was 800-1000 word scene with the theme of "First Kiss." The challenge was that if you are female, you have to write your scene from a male perspective, and if you're male, you have to write from a female perspective. Harder than it sounds! :)

Hope to see you all there! Lots of announcements prior to the big annual convention in Orlando in November. Still time to register. Check the FWA website www.floridawriters.net

October FWA Meeting - This Saturday 10-6

All,

After making lots of calls in and around Naples this month, I regret to report that I haven’t been able to find a suitable restaurant with a meeting room down there that can accommodate us yet. Any help in that department from you Collier County folks is greatly appreciated.

Consequently, I’ve made reservations once again at Leapin’ Lizard in Cape Coral, who is delighted to have us back. For first-timers, The Lizard is on Cape Coral Parkway, just over the Cape Coral bridge from Ft. Myers, before you get to Del Prado Blvd., on your right.

We’ll be three from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM, this Saturday, 10/6 for late lunch off the menu and our meeting and discussion.

This month’s writing challenge (voluntary), was an 800 – 1000 word scene, told first-person of main character in jeopardy, and having to figure out how to extract themselves from said jeopardy.

Hope to see you all there,
Bob
