Back for January 18 meeting
After having taken off for three months, we're back for our January meeting. Our speaker will be Ken Pelham. His most recent release is Brigands Key, a tension-filled mystery-thriller set in Florida, and which includes some interesting history. I highly recommend it. Ken will speak on point of view in fiction writing.

November 2011 Maitland Writers Group Meeting
We skipped the October meeting because it was the same weekend as the conference. I did not attend the conference this year, but have heard wonderful reports from those who did. (I chose instead to run the Apalachicola Marathon.)
Our November meeting will be on the 18th. I plan to review rules of grammar and common mistakes. For those of you who have not been in an English class in a long time, this will be a good opportunity to recall things such as "comma splices" and "misplaced modifiers."
