May 15 – Moderator Dixon Rice – critique and open readings
Your own prose aloud, someone else would gladly read for you. You are invited to our Open Readings at 6 pm at Glacier Unitarian Universalist Fellowship.
Plan to read up to 6 pages if there is a light crowd; otherwise, 2-3 pages, double-spaced with 1″ margins.
If you have a few pages, you’d like input on, make about 8-10 copies to pass out, and bring them along. Plan to read up to 6 pages if there is a light crowd, otherwise 2-3 pages, double-spaced with 1″ margins. If you’re shy about reading aloud your own prose, someone else would be glad to read for you.
If you don’t have anything to present, please come and share your enthusiasm & experience with the readers. We were all newbies at one time…
