Alzheimer Caregiver’s Support Group
Writers take a vow of silence On Monday, January 7, 2019, Word Weavers International, Inc., will celebrate the launch of a Christian writers group in Hartsville,. Word Weavers has a unique model for peer manuscript reviews —silence. Word Weavers meetings begin with prayer and a time of networking. Members share publishing accomplishments, writing news, and information about local writing events and conferences. The core focus of the meeting, however, is on critiques, which are limited to 1,500 words per member per meeting. During critiques, peer writers read manuscripts aloud while others follow printed copies. After the piece is read, group members—some of whom are published authors—offer feedback on everything from plotting and character development to syntax and punctuation. Aside from a short introduction of the piece, the writer receiving critique is not
located at 103 Campus Drive, Hartsville. The meeting will begin at 10 a.m. This will be informational and uplifting as caregivers share their experiences. Any questions, contact Jackie Anderson at 393-8521. _______________________
