PAST EVENTS
2007 Writers’ Workshop:
Fun for All
Saturday,
June 16, 2007 Grove Hill United Methodist Church

The Writers’ Workshop sponsored by the Grove Hill
Writers’ Club and the Grove Hill Arts Council on June 16 at the Grove Hill
United Methodist Church attracted a bevy of writers from as far north as
Tuscaloosa and as far south as Fairhope. Their ages ranged from 18 to 80
years old. Steve Owens, adjunct professor of creative writing for the
University of Mississippi, presented a discussion of how to write effective
short fiction and how to pen good memoirs. The group of 25 to 30 writers
enjoyed his comments and the exercises designed to help them improve their
skills. Several participants remarked that they were going directly home
and begin practicing what they had learned from Professor Owens. The GHWC
and the GHAC plan to repeat the venture next summer!
