A library's lack of luster

Last nights writing group session was, in the very least, inspirational, hilarious, and moving. Margaret's exercise 'write in a location that you do not ordinarily write' proved to take us all down similar paths. Extrordinarily the bulk of us felt that our choices were limited to the library, a coffee shop, or the airport. Must be the time of year. We all had one thing in common; the library is not a very stimulating location, although Nola did do a great job in there.


New member Joanne joined us and fit right in. The group was missing a few, but the night was great. Everyone's writing seems to be coming along. More definitive style, a knowledge of what to ask and most importantly more critiques.
Great work everyone. The next meeting is Tuesday March 2. Our facilitator will be Christine and here is her assignment:
Write approximately 500-1000 words (or as Joanne says: when it's over you're done) about your cooking experience with a focus on thoughts, feelings, and where it takes you. For example, where does your train of thought go when you're chopping a carrot?
In the meantime I challenge anyone out there in blog-land to post something!

You could post a link to a great article or website or video. Maybe a poem or piece you've been working on or just your thoughts and frustrations and accomplishments. Would love to see more interaction on here from all directions.
Let's inspire!
