Writers' Morning Out, March 21, 2020

Coronavirus rules: Wash hands with soap and water for 30 seconds. Stay 6 feet away from me or I shoot. Upon meeting, no handshakes, just bow and curtesy. Damn, if you have to sneeze, do it vampire style with mouth/nose in the crook of the elbow then burn your shirt within 5 hours. Not a good time to go to China, but eating ethnic is always good.

“The first draft is just you telling yourself the story,” – Terry Pratchett. “The first draft of anything is shit.” – Ernest Hemingway.
WMO meets at 1 p.m. on March 21st in the http://greekkouzina.com/ backroom in Pittsboro. The NCWN sponsors WMO. Carol Phillips heads WMO. 

The 2020 WMO theme is “Inspiration.” Together we’ll inspire each other to writing greatness (or, at least, mediocrity).

March is “a General Discussion on Problems and Inspirations.” Carol will lead a discussion about issues you may be having and/or things that are inspiring you or that you wish to share with others. “Let’s get pumped up.” Watch this YouTube video now.

April is “The Effects of Marigolds on Poetry in Motion.” Get inspired by and let poetry inspire you. Marigolds are optional. Tom Dow is not. However, this conflicts with the NCWN Conference. Stay tuned for a possible changes.

May is “How to do an Open Mic.” The do’s and dont’s of presenting at an open mic. And who knows, maybe some open mic presentations.
