May 11 Meeting Minutes

We met yesterday to make up for last week's missed meeting. We had Asriel, Amare, James and William in attendance. 

We voted on participating in the Twilight event on Oct 8. You do not have to be a student to participate and we will need lots of vampires for this. We'll get more details. We will have the twilight costumes at the next meeting which is next Weds. Please come to the meeting in person to discuss the event and how the Writers Guild will participate. 

We then wrote haiku's and did a creativity word game. 

We discussed how we can help with the fall Welcome Week. 

        Need anime trivia for our online Anime Jeopardy game

        Anyone who can help with a Smash Brothers tournament, please volunteer. We will try to borrow equipment from Harker Heights Public Library for the tournament

        Need anime artists to draw photo backdrops on sheets at the next meeting. We will also have an anime contest during Welcome Week. More details to come. 

See you next week!

Meeting next week May 11th but read the things we're looking for!

• The fall's Welcome Week theme is anime. We are planning a Smash Brothers tournament on Monday, Aug 29 and Tuesday, Aug 30 at the library. We will plan it from 12-1pm. We need to set up the games and tournament stuff again. We will need volunteers to help, but you won't have to stay the entire time or on both days. We need equipment and I can possibly borrow some from Harkers Heights Public Library.  We need commitments.

• Wednesday, Aug 31, we will have an anime drawing contest from 12-1:30pm. We will give you different increments of time to draw like 5 minutes, 10 minutes, etc and the best one wins that round until we have a grand winner. We will offer distance students the chance to join us via WebEx.

 Hi Writers, Artists, Gamers, Photographers, Comedy Writers and Overall Creative People, 

Our next meeting this this Wednesday (tomorrow) at 4:30pm. I'll send out a WebEx for those who can't make it in person. 

Bring your latest work and we will give feedback. We will take about 5 minutes each, so don't plan on reading your novel, but share something. 

If you guys have any other ideas, bring them to the meeting. 

Also, this Thursday is our next Author Night. Please plan to be there and support Antion Lewis who is one of our members as well as Ashley Knight who has helped many of you get published. 

See you tomorrow and Thursday! 

Have a great day,

April 20 Meeting Minutes

 6 Members were in attendance at the meeting. 

We talked about Byways and how to pursue it next year.

Also Asriel quickly wroter some poetic lines and we all created a story from those 4 lines. 

Next meeting is on Wednesday, May 4th at 4:30pm

Don't forget that the Byways Reception is tomorrow from 3-5pm at the library. 

Also next Thursday is our next Author Night (May 5th) at 6-8pm.Come on out to meet published authors! 

Tomorrow is our next Writers Guild Meeting

 Good morning Creative Persons,

We have another Writers Guild meeting tomorrow at 4:30pm. It's in room 211 and I will send out a WebEx invitation for anyone who can't make it in person. 

1. I thought it would be good to talk about Byways. Half of you were named finalists and half were not. It's important to talk about how you feel concerning this. You are all talented and to those who did not get named, this had to be very disappointing.  So let's talk! Which means, don't hide from this. This will be good for everyone, including non-students. If you want to be a successful writer, artist, gamer, photographer and comedy writer, you will have to face rejection. So this is a great opportunity to learn.  In other words, show up to the meeting tomorrow!

Congratulations are in order for our Byways winners:

Amber McCallister 1st Place in Drawing, 1st and 2nd Place in Sculpture

Gryphon Roberts 1st Place in Music Lyrics

Ashley Demers 2nd Place in Music Lyrics

Kaeden Nelson 1st Place in Playwriting

Asriel Jackson 2nd Place in Poetry

Congratulations to all! We're very proud of you! 

1. We can also work on honing our creative skills. 
2. James, William, Robert and Edward, as officers, do you have anything you would like to put on the agenda?
3. Also anyone else?

1.  We will have the creator of the Twilight event stop by and she is wanting to recruit Twilight Voltaire characters and assign play roles for the Oct 8 Twilight New Moon event. If you are interested at all in being a vampire or just working at the event, please come to the meeting tomorrow. 

*NOTE* This Thursday, April 21 is our first Author Night from 6-8pm at the library. Here's your opportunity to talk to published authors and make yourself known in the creative world. The authors will first read from their work and then you can visit with them at tables after. This is a great opportunity for you guys, so please attend it. It's free so bring your family and friends. 

There is also a second Author Night on May 5th from 6-8pm at the library. There will be some different authors at that one, so please try to make that one as well. 

Hopefully, we will see you all tomorrow. We have lots of fun stuff in store. 

Thanks guys for just being you, 

Cindy

Tomorrow is our next Meeting!

 I'll send a WebEx invite but if you can make it, we'd love to see you.

We have a new member! Joy Mynett! Welcome aboard! 

We made ten dollars at the fundraiser which is a great start! 

I'll bring something to spur our writing, but you guys bring things as well. 

See you tomorrow!
