Greetings from the Drake Writers’ Group On July 29th, Barbara Slavinski, the medical librarian from Drake Center brought three members of the Drake Writer’s Group on a field trip to CWP’s Wednesday Fiction Critique group. Drake’s focus has changed over the years and it is almost exclusively a rehab center for brain injury patients now. Ms. Slavinski encourages patients and workers to express themselves through the writers’ group. At the end of our session, the Drake group was presented with a copy of our latest anthology for their library. Drake Writers’ Group meets on Tuesdays and Fridays from 2 to 3 pm in the Drake Medical Library. Writers read their work and the group offers support. Ms. Slavinski said, “We welcome your visit to us.” If you are interested, call Barbara at 418-2684. Update from Madame Prez It is that time of year again. CWP dues are due. Paying dues is not mandatory, but your dues are the source of the seed money we use to publish our anthologies. If being a CWP member has helped you become a better writer, or if it has just kept you out of trouble on critique group nights, please help support the group by paying your $25.00 either at the Member’s party or by sending a check to: Cincinnati Writers Project PO Box 29367 Cincinnati, OH 45229 It is also time for CWP elections. As things stand we have two elected offices, president and treasurer. Rough Draft Editor, and Web-guru are appointed offices. I’m willing to stay on as President for one more year. Although she and her husband may be moving back to India sometime next year because of his job, Saloni is willing to stay on as Treasure until or unless that happens. As of the time I’m writing this, no one has come forward to run for either office. If you are interested please let a member of the CWP board know. Both the voting for the CWP board members and paying of dues usually happens in October at the annual CWP member’s party. This year’s member’s party is tentatively scheduled for the first Saturday in November, which gives you a little more time to think about both. I had really wanted to have the details on this year’s party worked out in time for the Fall Rough Draft, but I’m still negotiating with the good folks at Jo-Beth. Keep your eyes peeled for specific member’s party details in the near future.
