Hello fellow writers!! Are you curious about the Savannah Writers Group? Fantastic! My advice is that you come to a meeting, and soon! We can't wait to meet you. Our meetings take place every 2nd and 4th Tuesday of the month, like clockwork! We meet in the super swanky back room of Uncle Maddio's Pizza, which is located at Chatham Plaza.

Tonight is the second Tuesday of the month and attendees of the January 23rd meeting of the Savannah Writers Group to be held at 7 PM at Uncle Maddio's Pizza will share in the distinct pleasure of meeting J. C. Sassar, author of Gradle Bird . Biography I was born in Savannah, Georgia and grew up in a small town called Metter, sixty miles northwest. I first discovered writing through sound. As an infant, I crawled around the ankles of two of the best storytellers I’ve ever heard, my maternal grandmother and true Southern queen, Rubye Trapnell Becker, and my father, Hugh Esten Cromartie Jr., a legendary whitetail deer hunter and T-4 paraplegic with no legs. When I was old enough to make requests, I’d ask them to tell my favorite stories over and over again, sometimes four or five times in a row. The plots were not what I found most interesting. It was the way they told these stories that never got old.
