The Stratford Writers Group had a great first meeting to open the year.
Four new members have joined the group and all of them had some interesting stories to share.
The writers group opened the meeting with a 10 minute exercise. The subject for this was 'Oh, Grandma'. The members penned tales about a granny with suspect driving habits, and a granny who pre-empted a fashion fad, and plenty of other interesting stories.
Following the exercise the group read their homework for February. The topic was 'Under the Surface'.
