September 25th Meeting
Dinner starts at 5:30 and speaker starts around 6:30.
"What Constitutes a Writing Life?"
with Gail Noble-Sanderson
What a writer's life looks like is unique to each writer. While our pen-to-paper writing requires discipline and focus, maintaining a spirit of flexibility in how we create the essentials of a writing life is vital to our well-being.
Throughout her career as a Speech-Language Pathologist, Gail wrote and published instructional programs for children with special needs. Fourteen years ago, she turned her love of writing to fiction, completing the three award-winning historical fiction novels in her Lavender Meuse Trilogy which are set in France. Her award-winning first book of The Drew Davies Railway Mystery Series, The Book of Rules. A Cup of Revenge is Gail’s second book in the historical mystery series and is set in Wales. She makes her home in the Pacific Northwest and self-publishes through her publishing house, Noble Press.
Note we are changing the location of our meetings. We will now be meeting at Buffalo Wild Wings at the Bellis Fair Mall. They have a side room that is double or more than that of the old location. RESERVATIONS are required so that we are properly staffed to eat quickly.
New to WWP
Welcome, Pacific Northwest Writers!
We meet every last Wednesday from September to June in scenic Bellingham, WA. Supper starts at 5:30, and the speaker starts at 6:30-7.
Dues are 25 dollars a year or 40 for two years. We use the dues to pay for our speakers to come from around the region, and for an occasional table at local writer events. Our dues year runs from September to June, like our meetings, but will roll over if you pay late in the cycle. If you want to try us out first, feel free. Speakers in the past have included authors Cami Ostman and Robert Dugoni, and agent Donald Maass, covering topics such as social media, self-publishing, memoirs, mixed media, poetry, fiction, and nonfiction. It is our goal to offer something for everyone, no matter your place in the writing journey-- just starting or long-published. Old school or new. If you have an idea for a speaker or topic, let us know, but if it has been covered recently it might not be picked up.
