Record of meeting 28 June 2017


The writers
Terry, Pauline, Helene, Jenni, Elizabeth and welcome Roberta

Words of the day

Epoch – a point in time
Extemporaneous – unrehearsed

Gesticulate – gesture dramatically

Flounce – fling of the body, a ruffle

Coruscate – of light, flash or sparkle
Snuffle – breathe noisily through a partially blocked nose

Writing from words of the day
Pauline – In the early morning air, Roberta – The manikins, Jenni – The Flamenco dancer, Terry – All night long, Helene  - The snake and Elizabeth – Revealing the tops of your legs.

Reading of homework
Six writers created homework as follows:  Pauline – A bath when necessary, Jenni – Very little to write this week, Terry – The initials EW, Elizabeth – Tommy the pony, Roberta – Hungry, cold and lonely and Juan – Hot air (read by Terry).

Exercise – The meteor
The writers created a character and wrote stories including a description of the character and a meteor.  Jenni – My idol, Roberta – I saw a meteor, Pauline – Hollywood here I come, Elizabeth – I can’t lie, Helene – I hate crowds and Terry – The nutty professor.

Exercise - I see, I hear, I smell, I touch/ feel, I taste

The writers motivated by the exercise created the following stories: Helene – Chocolate, Elizabeth – A well groomed man and licorice, Pauline – Light and darkness, Roberta – A bottle, Jenni – Sunny sky & water and Terry – Through my minds eyes.

Homework
The music was loud or any other topic that stimulates your creativity
