Writers circle starts Feb. 28
Good news for Kona writers. Write Stuff, a group of local writers, will meet weekly beginning Feb. 28 for encouragement and supportive feedback.
The group welcomes new members for the spring session beginning in a private home in central Kona. Participants’ works are read aloud for verbal feedback and written comments. Open to all who wish to expand their written skills, enjoy the exchange of a focused group and meet new people with a common interest.
The group offers a small resource library of reference books and professional magazines. Guest authors lead question/answer sessions. Free and open to the public.
