THOUGHTS OF A POET IN THE RAIN

We held our meeting last night at the Fruitville Road library in Sarasota, FL. It is one of the many writing groups I belong to and I am actively seeking others.

I think writing groups can be helpful. They are great places to meet new people and to learn new ideas at or to refresh old ideas.Plus it is a great place for marketing ideas. Writers need to learn how to market. Most of us don’t have a clue in that department and are waiting for someone to come along and “discover” us. Well, I’m still waiting. How about you?

Last night we had a small group. The assigned task was to write something “funny”. Unfortunately, I never know where my writing is going to go and many times I will shoot for funny and wind up with, hmm, should I say odd.  LOL.

Nevertheless, the group members had some great articles and poems they had written and I think it was a good evening.
