Word Pirates

Hi everybody,

Last week’s meeting was a good one. There were snacks, good drink and good stories (Morgan’s was a chapter from a graphic novel). The prompt, for those of you who missed out, is to write about someone minor (fictional or real) associated with a historical figure or character in literature. For instance, a story from the point of view of a Theodore Roosevelt’s maid. The example we read was a story by Jonathan Safran Foer about the cravings the mothers of well-known figures had when they were pregnant.

We also talked about having Word Pirates contribute to the blog, rather than starting a full-blown lit journal. If you would like a log-on to add to the blog, let Joy know.

Our next meeting is 4/19. See you then.
