May Writing Day



Dear poets,

A quick reminder about this month's Writing Day.  It will be taking place this Saturday, starting at 10:15am and finishing at 4pm.  The morning session will be at The Premier Inn as usual.

If you are planning to attend (and haven't let us know already), it would be a great help if you could send a quick reply to this email.

All best wishes,
Katherine
