    Had a great time meeting everyone tonight! Very inspired now :) You were all lovely! The next meeting is 16th of August @IFI 6.30ish! Any who wants to come I'll pm you my mobile number so that we don't miss you! We are all going to try and write 500 words by next meeting. If you pm me I shall send you my email address. I am going to set up group email so that we can email each others writing before the next meeting so that we have a chance to read it.

    Sorry to hear that Steve_r. I'll pm you my email address. As soon as everyone gets back to me with their email address i'll send a group email. I think for the next time i'll just give everyone my mobile number via email so that nobody is left out.

    I'm interested in this. You're not open to PMs Monkeysocks so I dropped you a friendship request.

    Really sorry I wasn't able to make this, or the next one. Family member got taken into hospital quite urgently about two days before and I was on bedside duty :). All is well though I'm glad to say.

    I'll definitely try make to the one AFTER. I don't know if it will be possible though with school starting up again (sixth year, *shivers*) but I'm glad it went well for those who went and it's a great idea.

    I don't know what is going on with the group settings because we have a member who has an eircom account. Anyway I told everyone to email their stuff in a group email. did you not get any emails??

    Hi Everyone,

    I sent a group email! Hope everyone got it?! I can't figure out why the group is accepting some people and not others, until I have this sorted can everyone just sent their stuff in a group email so we can all read it before monday?!

    Only two stories submitted to the group, I've asked everyone to send a group email with their writing including the people who put it up on the group page because some people can't access it!

    It's in the Irish Film Institute, 6 Eustace Street. Temple Bar, Dublin2. I am crap at giving directions! All I can say is it's well known and if you just go to temple bar someone will point you in the directions!

    Tomas, I've cut the youtube clips out of this thread because they are set to autoplay which means they start playing (twice as it was quoted) as soon as the page is open, which is really annoying. Also, the clip was in no way relevant to the thread.
    Would you mind reposting them, either in a new thread or in your other poetry thread, and without the autoplay option?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    My name is Johanna and I took some creative writing classes with Big Smoke Writing Factory and now, all I need to do is WRITE.

    But it's difficult to do so without some motivation, and that's why I would love to join you on Monday.

    Do I need to email anything to anybody or just come along?

    Thanks!

    Johanna
