The Meath Writers' Circle (Meeting) May 2003

The Meath Writers' Circle (Meeting) May 2013

Some of those in attendance
As many as nineteen people turned up for last Thursday night's meeting of the group or was it eighteen, I'm not so sure? I was too busy reading  through a few poems. All intended for the upcoming publication. If it happens folks it happens! A lot of material is now gathered, and of all shapes and shades which could make for an interesting read. We will see! Time to brush up on the old Battle of the Books skills as that date  is  approaching fast and never was satire needed so much. What ever happened to the "Irish Pictorial Weekly" over on our national station? Very good it was, the few episodes that had on. Maybe it was too close to the bone. A few more and enough of that and the license fee might have gone out the window not to mention the powers that be. Most of the comedy that's now on is dire or safe enough to be absolutely harmless unless you're a safe target and then it's game on for anything. Interesting discussion on the Strokestown results over on the Stammering Poet blogsite and worth a look That's it folks, bye for mow!

Is the Battle of the Books definitely on? Last time I heard there was some doubt. Boyne Writers have made no plans yet.
