Record of meeting 8 May 2019

The writers – Terry, Helene, Pauline

Apologies – Garry, Fran, Trevor, Jenny, Pat, Gail

The words of day

Frisson – a shudder of emotion

Ephemeral – lasting a very short time

Trivial – of little worth or importance

Raison d’être – the most important reason for existence 

Methylation – a process where methyl groups are added to the DNA.

Writing from words of the day

The writers shuddered as they wrote about Clive Palmer, It was Methylation and MI 6.

Reading of homework

The writers read homework on the topics - 20/20 hindsight, I would be at the Sydney Writers Festival and wild parties and Change.

SeeChange 1 to 10 June 2019

The writers discussed the SeeChange festival in particular the poetry event. It’s been over a decade since poet and comedian, Tug Dumbly, rocked a packed Husky Pub for the SeeChange Festival. Now he’s back for a long overdue return performance in which he’ll be reading poems from his just released book, Son Songs, as well as performing a bunch of his old favourite live poems and songs. Tug will be supported by some fine local poets, all in the beautiful surrounds of Capricorn – Andrew Harvey’s unique house in Tomerong.  Capricorn, is a hill top, stone house designed and built by Harv on virgin bush land with 180 degree view of Jervis Bay. There is ample parking and it is an all weather venue. Bring a plate to share. Book now at https://seechangefestival.net.au/festival-program/eclectic-events/
