Telling Our Stories presented by the Writers’ Group

Please join us on Tuesday morning August 6 when members of our Writers Group will share family stories that they have written. In the past, these have been amazing stories that will take you back in time. I would expect the same thing for this program.

The EGS Writers’ Group is a special interest group that encourages and assists with writing family stories and histories. Participants share their stories for help with ideas, resources and clarification. The group meets at 10:00 am on the 2nd Monday of the month in the 2nd floor conference room at the main branch of the Gail Borden Library. Guests are welcome to attend to see the process and perhaps join in on the writing.
