Pencils! Points: September 8, 2009


Hello, all! Before I get to the meeting notes, here’s some announcements:

The Pencils! 6th Annual Holiday Party will take place on Saturday, December 12, 2009, at 7 p.m. at Carol’s House. As usual, we’ll be putting together invitations and sending them out via snail-mail, and directions will be enclosed. Watch this newsletter and your mailboxes for details, but count on our usual $5-$10 grab-bag gift exchange!

And now, onto the meeting:

1. Iris and Eydie, our two newest members, are working on a memoir, and the meeting was spent on the first pages of their work as well as brain-storming. Their project has yet to have a title.

2. Tom arrived…and we all decided to do one of those famous (or infamous) 5-minute prompts! Carol suggested a “My life began on [social networking site of choice]. Joyce and Eydie wrote about e-mail, Tom wrote about Chatrooms, Carol about Twitter, and Iris and Kaye wrote about Facebook.

SEE YOU ALL AT THE NEXT MEETING ON SEPTEMBER 22!
