What could be better than an evening spent getting on with your writing? Perhaps a cosy evening by a crackling log fire in an old cottage, drinking wine and talking about books with your writing buddies!
We gathered at Yvie’s home last night, to discuss The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. This gorgeous-looking little book ‘reveals’ the age-old Law of Attraction – that you can bring good and bad things into your life, simply by imagining that they’re already there.
Most of us had tried the Law of Attraction for ourselves, some with surprising success. If you feel like trying a simple experiment, the accompanying website offers a Bank of the Universe cheque to print out, which is supposed to bring a set amount of money to you – hey, it’s got to be worth a try!
There are so many things to consider when planning a book club – timing, venue, refreshments, book selection, what questions to ask when leading the discussion, and, most importantly, what snacks to give Yvie’s friendly dog, Fudge.
Words, Wit, Wisdom and Wine isn’t connected with or organised by Island Writers, but I thought you’d be interested.
I’m hoping to meet some of Yvie’s other friends there next time, when our book choice is Friend Request by Laura Marshall: a psychological thriller based on social media. I suggested it, so it’s all my fault if you don’t like it!
