Writing at the Beach

I felt very fortunate that Rebecca Bridges asked me to address two writing groups at the Waccamaw Neck Branch Library near Myrtle Beach. I drove from Columbia, allowing the GPS on my smart phone to direct me through Lake City, on a route I had never traveled before. The pristine library provided an excellent space for the group, which included practitioners of fiction, nonfiction, and memoir, to consider how plotting strategies could be used in each of those disciplines. In the evening, I visited with good friends, Chester and Gini Abee. A wonderful trip. The beach is magnificent in March!
