Savannah Writers Group

Here is a quick look at our meeting calendar for the remainder of 2013! Tuesday, November 26th:  The Savannah Writers Group will meet at 7PM at The Atlanta Bread Company. DECEMBER Tuesday, December 10th:  The Savannah Writers Group will meet at 7PM at The Crystal Beer Parlor, for a Holiday Gathering! Check out their website to preview the menu. They are located at 301 West Jones Street Savannah, GA 31401 (and have an actual parking lot!). As the fourth Tuesday in December is Christmas Eve, I daresay we will not meet that evening. Be thinking of program ideas for 2014!

The next meeting of the Savannah Writers Group will be held at the Atlanta Bread Company on Tuesday, November 12th at 7 PM. Bring your writing to share and bring along ideas for future programs.  Bring writing prompts if you've got 'em. Also, bring suggestions for our Christmas dinner meeting. Which restaurant would be good?

The next meeting of the Savannah Writers Group will be held at the Atlanta Bread Company at 7 PM on Tuesday, October 22nd. We hope to see you there!
