As you may be aware, Island Writers now has a lot of members and it is taking too long for everyone to share their writing in the time allocated, so meetings are dragging on too late. For this reason, we have decided to make two important changes:

As of today, membership is FROZEN. Island Writers will not take on any more new members at present.

EXCEPT places are reserved for the next 2 months for the following people, who have already contacted me personally or joined our Facebook Group : John, Sandy, Shirley, Caroline, Kim and Katerina. You are still welcome to join Island Writers.

AND

Our meeting time is now EXTENDED. We will continue to start at 7pm, but meetings will now end at 9.30pm.

If you need to leave earlier, just let me know so you can be one of the first to share your writing. And I will try to improve my time management!

Anyway, if you’re still up for a drink and a laugh I will meet you at Yelf’s in Union Street, Ryde on Tuesday 1st January at 7pm onwards.

If you have all made other plans by now, I will sit sadly alone in the bar, nursing my drink and looking like a complete Milly-No-Mates.

So, no pressure.
