Meeting Minutes for January 27

Welcome back everyone! 

It was great getting back to the meetings! We met on WebEx. If anyone wants to join in the conversation, email referencerequest@ctcd.edu.

We discussed the Recipe book we plan on doing for a fundraiser. It looks like Bianca has a link to a great channel. 

We are also still in discussion about using our own poems for a fundraiser.

We looked at doing a virtual escape room and need ideas for an escape room story. We already have the Google form template for the escape. 

Naomi will send out a new flyer/calendar with our spring semester dates. 

Our next meeting is February 10th at noon. Please encourage your friends to join. Just email referencerequest@ctcd.edu to get links to Discord and WebEx. 

How To Cook Leftover Thanksgiving Casserole

What are your plans this winter?

 Hey guys! 

Howza going?

Anyone get their write-on lately?

We're 1/3 of our way into December already! Time flies... 

Next Meeting January 27th

 So we discussed the future of our writer's guild! 😏

To get our guild more attention, we're going to be posting  Facebook and Twitter posts, if you have a Facebook or Twitter account check it out whenever you're free!

During the meaning, we discussed what name we would use to reference us on social media and decided on Writer Guild's Desk

For our poem fundraiser, we decided to put it and any future works under the name of Writer's Guild Outlet. 

And just for those of you who may have already forgotten or don't know, this fundraiser is related to the library's lending closet- they lent clean clothes for students that needed to borrow clothes for job interviews and whatnot, the fundraiser is for the dry cleaning fee as well as serving as pocket moolah for members.

We also have another project underway, you guys have any family Christmas recipes? Wanna share em? Stay tuned! It's not out of the woodwork yet but if you have the free time to write it up, just keep it in a corner for now.

We're trying to keep this club alive, and our open to any suggestions for activities whatsoever! I also may be posting random activities here so looking forward to seeing you all these next couples of weeks. :)

December 2nd Meeting

 Hello everyone! 

Thanks for coming in today!

Hmm, we'll probably be mostly on Web-ex and discord today, but you are also free to post here if you can?

Next Meeting Dec 2

 Hope to see you then! 

In then it was decided we'll be doing a narrative telephone livestream. 

Here's an example for what these are as suggeted by Ella youtube.com/watch?v=HHCSECk3s04

The event takes place Jan19/20, I will be going to the library Dec 14 if anyone wants to practice/ set up their laptops to do so as the welcoming week will be a livestreaming event...

I may end up livestreaming from a pc at the library lol? 

As for the gift cards. Some discussion was made as to the costs of shipping and construction. Mrs. O can go into more depth later.

Also don't forget we need need officers 🙏 help us keep the guild alive, tell a friend, tell a youngin. Tell anybody. Officers must be students attending ctc...

November 18th Meeting

 Hello everyone! 👍

Please give me a sec, just copying and pasting...

The Welcome Week Committee has asked the guild to participate in a Welcome Week Activity. The library is already doing a Splattergories game and several art contests.

 They are looking for club members to come up with a fun online activity. This activity would be done once during the first two weeks of the spring semester. It would need to be for about an hour. This would be a great opportunity for recruitment.

Was the thing we needed to discuss. Though how goes the update on making the cards? Have we been given the green light?

Also as it's already been mentioned, I'll be graduating so someone will have to take over this role. :3

Hmmm.... Its been a while since we've done activities so thinking up one for the welcoming committee... How about a writing activity to get everyone acquainted? An activity where people will get to know about the things on their mind or personality... Hmm..... And it has to be done for an hour? Doesn't sound that different from our meetings. Yet I can't think of any at the moment

How goes the nanowrimo proggress? I will admit I forgot and was focusing on trying to make a youtube channel. I broke my pace after panicking. r. r 🙏 I have sinned. 

We're currently talking on discord.
