Minutes from Oct 17th 2021
Between 12 and 15 members attended Sunday’s Writers’ Mill meeting. Some were unable to attend because they had problems finding the email link. It seems rather unproductive to ask you to please email me if you don’t get this email but… if you do get this email, but don’t get the one with the email link for the next meeting, please email me during the morning, so I can resend the link to you before the meeting starts. Our next meeting will be on Sunday November 21st, and we plan to upload the anthology and create the cover “before your very eyes.”

Attendance and Zoom
20 members attended September’s Writers’ Mill meeting over zoom, while several more tried and failed to get in. We don’t know for sure what went wrong, but we suggest the following two ways to avoid problems getting in to zoom in future:

May’s meeting was well attended, and we delighted in the mix of new and old members, prompting discussions of how we will meet when real-world attendance becomes possible again. Laura assures us the library is planning to set things up so distant members can continue to attend by Zoom. Like many other library groups, we look forward to welcoming back those who couldn’t Zoom, and continuing to welcome those who’ve joined us because of Zoom. Watch this space…

If you weren’t one of the 18 people at April’s meeting, you missed a lively and informative discussion, followed by a lively and informative critique. But you probably enjoyed the Sunday sunshine, so it’s all good!

Members from around the world and from around Cedar Mill met together for Cindy Brown’s mystery writing workshop in March, and Sheila did her best to take good minutes for those who couldn’t make it. Apologies to those who had problems with the email link – in general, if a link doesn’t work, you need to cut the whole link – or, as one member put it, the whole set of gobbledygook letters and numbers – and paste it into your browser. Judy has kindly offered to field requests for help if anyone has problems with the link at future meetings, thus freeing Sheila to continue to take minutes, so please remember: If you can’t cut and paste the whole link, email Judy for assistance!
