Today will be a great day! There will be books, and words, people who are friends already, and perhaps others who will become friends. All happening in my favourite Gawler pub, wonderful, how could this not be a great day!
I’m wearing good clothes, not Covid casual crappy ones for a change, and it feels good! I love helping to run this event, that happens on the last Sunday of every month, at the Prince Albert hotel, where our writing group meet every Thursday afternoon.
Being at that hotel, where we are well known, and appreciated, it makes for an enjoyable time, every time, and I’m excited, yet again, to be going there. The workshop sounds interesting, and I know the presenter will do a fine job of it. The presenter, and Guest Poet for the day, Martin Christmas, is a performer, who always works hard to make things go well.
This event was going to happen in March this year, but had to be cancelled, because of Covid-19, and I’m sure we’re all pleased we are able to get together again, even though we will have to be socially distanced, with no hugs at all, and certainly no kissing!
But words, our words, and the words of others, will bring us all together, close and kind, and I am so looking forward to it all happening, gotta go soon, or I’ll be late, seeya!
Well, I was right, it was indeed an excellent day of words, writing them, and sharing them!

This was our second one, but the first was mostly a shortened version 9f a writing festival that usually covers 4 days. It was condensed to one afternoon, announcing the winners of our poetry competition, mostly.
Yesterday was an excellent event, a workshop that brought out some fine poetry, and then a great poetry reading, with some more people arriving as well, for that part of the day, wonderful friendly times, with some fine poems read by those present!

It was wonderful to catch up with so many friends again. No real hugs, but being with there in that room with them in such a friendly space, that was like a big hug!
