Friends of Writing, Do remember that we meet every second and fourth Tuesday of the month. This month that means we will have meetings on the 9th and the 23rd. Until further notice, our meetings still happen at 7 PM at our regular spot, The Atlanta Bread Company at Twelve Oaks Shopping Center. This month we would like to seriously discuss other possible meeting locations. When suggesting a new location, it would be helpful if you go ahead and touch base with someone there, to ensure it is free to use and no one would mind hosting a group of writers at our usual time. We will compile a list of potential places and have a vote.
