June 2012 meeting

It's that time of the month again, folks, and the Admastor Writers' Guild will be having another open shindig at its usual haunt (Baran's, c/o Burg and Shortmarket streets, Cape Town) at 10am on Saturday, June 2. This month we're looking at writing drabbles, so bring pen and paper and join us for a morning of wordsmithing.

If you're an author of fantasy, horror and SF fiction, and you're tired of not having anyone who "gets" you, then swing on past.

Feel free to mail me at nerinedorman@gmail.com if you'd like to join us, or call me on 082 958 3631.
