Record of meeting 25 May 2016

Farewell to May and poetry

The writers

Wendy, Cath, Helene, Diane, Juan

The Words of the day

Linger – loiter

Ambulant – walking      

Apoplectic – furious, cranky

Apathy – couldn’t care less

Pugnacious – aggressive, belligerent


Writing from words of the day

The elite group of five writers took the words of the day and pugnaciously created the following stories – Wet or dry – Helene, Status Quo – Cath, I woke at 6 am – Juan, Government debate – Diane and  Dressed as a clown – Wendy.

Reading of homework

Four writers read out wonderful homework -
 Helene – My male ancestors, Wendy – I wish I was a woman from the male perspective, Diane – How many mistakes 
and Juan – A newly made mother.



Exercise

We took the phrase “I can’t put my finger on it” and wrote

Helene – My finger went red, Wendy – pimple on my spine, Diane – A dream, Juan – Who cares and Cath – the word wont come.
