Adelaide Plains Chapter and Verse

In the beginning, there was a poetry group - Adelaide Plains Poets Inc.. This group grew and prospered, until... one person left, another person left until there was only one person left. That person, though saddened, wasn't destroyed. The group had been set up to further poetry, and further poetry she would! She continued the poetry competition, talked about poetry, attended poetry events, wrote and shared poetry... Then along came a project - Adelaide Plains Chapter & Verse!

Group meeting this afternoon 2 May 2013

It was a smallish meeting today, with only Puss N Boots, Alex, Chris and me. We spoke of what we've been doing, read homework as appropriate and then did a writing exercise. This exercise was to write a longer piece (no poetry) using this phrase as the prompt - "Roger didn't know what was going to happen next ..."

Two of us wrote short stories and the other one began a novel. The work written was read, and there will be more work done on the pieces written, or not, as the writers wish. It was fascinating to see where the group members took these words... Feel free to have a go yourself, and bring the work to another meeting!

Puss chose not to write anything, but took an active interest in the proceedings for the afternoon.
