The Meath Writers' Circle/ June Meeting 2013

Writers' Circle/ June 2013


Crowd Scene!
About sixteen or seventeen people turned out (19 I believe!) for the above meeting which saw a wide variety of topics discussed, poems read and the one or two other items discussed on how to raise money for the forthcoming collection.If it ever comes out into the light I'd imagine it will be much later in the year. Meanwhile "The Battle of the Books" looms and I'd better leave this project aside and get writing. The pressure of a deadline! The "Swift Festival" in Trim is from Thursday the fourth of July to Sunday the seventh and is sure to draw a large crowd with the "Battle" itself on the Thursday night this year. Credits go to Paddy Smith for organizing this event every year. Next Sunday though sees the "Hay Making Festival" in the Porchfields and I believe Doris Daley the Canadian cowboy poet will be in attendance. More on that later in the week. Bound to be something on youtube!
