I know it's going to take some time. It would help if the Library would officially adopt my group so that it will be included in the future newsletters. Here's to hoping!Elizabeth Haysmonthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01167517867828909705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2525821381928899734.post-82387557245685580662009-07-08T01:20:55.669-06:002009-07-08T01:20:55.669-06:00I agree with Gail, this piece is definitely about ...I agree with Gail, this piece is definitely about someone rediscovering their younger self and as such fits the brief. I really liked how the husband is finding out something new about his wife. It is almost as if he is meeting for the the first time the person she has rediscovered.<br /><br />Hope the writing group situation improves.dan powellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14131553102349479513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2525821381928899734.post-69952301409947786332009-07-07T12:40:03.010-06:002009-07-07T12:40:03.010-06:00Thanks for the reassurance, Gail.

You did get the point of my piece (which REALLY reassures me), but I'd gotten the idea from the description it should have been lost loves, etc. Glad it 'works' as is. hahaha<br /><br />Although this does exhibit a certain amount of introspection within me of late, the story is completely fabricated as my mother died over twenty years ago. I was, however, a gymnast, the Cowardly Lion in TWOO, and I graduated. :) Never tossed my cap into a tree, though.Elizabeth Haysmonthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01167517867828909705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2525821381928899734.post-74091806573134559912009-07-06T16:49:52.619-06:002009-07-06T16:49:52.619-06:00Sue, I don't think you got the instructions wr...Sue, I don't think you got the instructions wrong, just interpreted them different. The instructions.. "write a short scene about someone from the past who comes into the picture back suddenly"..That someone could be the young, energetic girl you used to be.By looking at the pictures you "ran into her again", after so many years. I think you did a great job!!Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16708578327526131765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2525821381928899734.post-80028233102451555262009-07-01T22:04:24.981-06:002009-07-01T22:04:24.981-06:00Thanks for coming by, Nancy.

I discovered that I 'flubbed' the exercise when I came home from the library after another (unsuccessful) attempt to get the writing group there started. As I had the whole hour by myself, I figured I should <i>write</i> something, even if no one chose to join me for the meeting. I was remembering the directions of the exercise wrong, but hey, there are no rules. hahaha<br /><br />Hope everything is okay with Nixy. I haven't heard a peep out of her!Elizabeth Haysmonthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01167517867828909705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2525821381928899734.post-58874763847704913802009-07-01T21:25:32.724-06:002009-07-01T21:25:32.724-06:00Hi Sue-
