Write Stuff at the Library


Is it a bird, is it a plane, will it take off? Time will tell if a group of writers from Lincoln, who met on a cold March evening, has what it takes to meld into a supportive and effective critique group.
Organized by Librarian of the Year (2005) and mystery maven, Jean Bracken, the Lincoln Library sponsored group of ten met to decide their ground rules, modus operandi and more importantly, who goes first.
A round robin indicates that interests range from family memoirs, to journalistic activism and ambitions from therapy to hall of fame status with the financial trappings sufficient to pay Town taxes. If only that could be true. Diverse backgrounds and experiences bonded together by no more than the desire to put finger to keyboard and produce the 2 to 1000 words that will be shared, critiqued and probably strongly defended by four of the ten on a bi-weekly basis.
Will deadlines encourage attendance or excuses? Time and March 15 will tell.
