Last meeting minutes and next meetings

 Hi Fellow Writers!

At our last meeting, we voted on meeting once a month through the summer. So mark you calendars for these dates:

  • Wednesday, June 9 at 4:30pm
  • Wednesday, July 7 at 4:30pm

We had a great discussion at the meeting on what writing projects we are all working on. We discussed genres and "those great life-long novels" we keep redoing. 

I promised everyone, that I would get some resources for them. 

We talked about getting the recipe/poem book together and we're getting closer to actually doing it. :-) 

There is also a possibility that we may be able to start doing in-person/virtual meetings in the fall. It would be a combination of anyone who can be there, be at the library and then we also bring a laptop to join Webex and the blog. That way those members who can't physically make it, can join us virtually. 

I didn't bring it up at the meeting, but we are also planning something similar with a combined in-person/virtual Communication Meets Community and the professors are back on board with it for giving out extra credit. I'll give you more details as we know more. 

As always, you can email us if you think of anything else. Just hit reply all on our emails. :-) 

Have a great rest of your week!

March 31 Meeting Minutes

 Hi guys,

Good news! Our member Antwion met with Author Ashley Knight and she will help him be published!! Congratulations, Antwion!

Antwion and I were in today's meeting. We discussed solidifying all these plans we've been talking about to drum up membership. I'll be contacting each of you to see what ideas we come up with. 

There is light at the end of the tunnel in regards to in-person meetings versus online, so don't give up. Nothing soon, but we can continue to do online fun activities and fundraisers online while waiting. 

Remember that any of the members can create a post here, so if anyone has an idea or fun writing activity, go ahead and feel free to start a post. 

Our next meeting is on  Wednesday, April 14 at 4:30pm. Hope to see you all then!

Have a great spring day today!

Changing time of the meetings and other fun stuff!

 Hi guys,


I've been individually talking to members and it seems like 4:30pm would work better for everyone. 

Sooooo.............how about we do that? 

It's 12:02 pm. and there are crickets and myself waiting for members in Webex. The crickets are nice and have some really creative ideas. Charles wrote several poems that he shared with me. They were mainly about eating and being eaten, but they were very entertaining. He wished he could have taken part in the Poetry Slam yesterday, but alas, there weren't earphones small enough for him. 

Then there is Cecil. Cecil just broke up with his girlfriend, so he is a bit bummed. I suggest that he just let her go and start croaking again for a new friend. He feels very supported.. Just between you and me, his creative writing is very dark. Dark is ok. Especially when you're a cricket. Much safety in that. Especially behind a refrigerator. 

Charlene is also here. She says hi!

Charles, Cecil and Charlene also vote for moving the meetings to 4:30pm. I think it's unanimous. Their hands are really small, so it's hard to tell if they hare saying "aye" or "nay." 

Oh, here's the list of winners in our Poetry Slam!

Best Poet
1st Dianna Ramos
2nd Gary Phillips
3rd Ashley Demers

Best Poems
1st Gary Phillips   What Lovers Do
2nd Ashley Demers   Hello Goodbye
2nd Dianna Ramos   Fear is for a Moment; Faith is Forever
3rd Ojo Traiye   The Long Crack in My Body Braids into the net
3rd Maricrus Enriquez Life
3rd Mike Matthews Before Sunrise

Congratulations to all! Especially Ashley and Mike Matthews who are Writers Guild members. Yay you guys! 

Make sure you all enter your work in Byways. You have to be a current student and the deadline is March 30. Here's the info https://www.ctcd.edu/academics/library/byways/

We're still working on the virtual escape room, the poetry book fundraiser and the recipe fundraiser.

Ferbruary 24 Meeting

 Long time no see folks. ✋

With a meeting that lasted about 40 minutes, today we were caught up on things discussed during the previous meeting.

 And Antwion's books. 

Is 4:30 pm Wednesday and Thursday a good time for everyone to have these virtual meetings? We discussed the availability of everyone. Let us know if it's A-okay for you. 

Points to clarify:

  • The Escape Room writing activity doesn't have a time limit but Byways does. If I recall it was extended past March 30. 
What's the Escape Room thing about? 

It's like a detective activity segment where you use the clues given in a short story and figure out a way to escape the room. Sort of like... a riddle. Or those whodunnit short story riddles, you may have solved as kids. 

As the president already mentioned before the Byways is a student-published journal, it's a collection of students' stories, poems, scripts, as well as photos. Feel free to publish something! If you're aspiring you can put it down on your resume that you're a published author. 

We have another poetry slam event approaching!

 Good afternoon everyone,

I hope you are all having a successful semester so far. There are a few talking points that I would like to hear from you on.

  • Flyer Design- I have the use of a quill and ink bottle to take a picture for the Guild to use without the worry of Copyright. However, I am having difficulty making up my mind as to which extra items to place in the photo. Here is a sample of one of my creations...

  • I have a variety of styled papers, and wax seals at my disposal. My creativity is actually creating quite the block because there are so many options that I can do.

  • Escape Room- we would really appreciate any and all story line ideas for creating the virtual escape room. It seems like it would be a blast and I would love to be able to create this for everyone to enjoy!

  • ByWays- It's that time of year again and if you don't know what I am talking about, well, listen up. Every spring there is a competition and the winner becomes published. Officially Published! The CTC Library is currently accepting submissions for the 2021 Byways Journal of Arts and Literature. It is a student publication featuring original creative written work; short fiction, poetry, song writing, non-fiction and drama. It also includes original artwork: painting, sculptures, photography, and metal works. ALL currently enrolled CTC students worldwide can submit their writing and art for publication consideration. Submissions are due March 30.

  • Fundraisers- There are currently two ideas brewing that the Guild can do for fundraisers. Poetry and the cookbook. Let's get our short short poems and yummy cooking ideas brewing:)
Let's have a great rest of the semester,

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. :)


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!

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.

October 28th Meeting

 Hello. 👋

The last time we met up we discussed ways to raise money for the Library's Clothes Lending Closet, one way was suggested was to make cards and sell them, but we would need permission to do so. How did getting permission for that go?

Aside from that Halloween and Nanowrimo month is approaching. I've made decent progress writing on mine, though I've taken a two-day break from doing so. So far I've written 5,582 words which are only 26 pages, I ended up re-writing the draft and am fighting the urge to switch to my different stories. Don't know why when pushing myself to write I suddenly become motivated to work on my others as well. But I'm trying to stay focused. 

How has everyone else been doing? How's your progress so far? If you're still taking classes or just now starting, best of luck in finishing. 

Since I took my last class, it seems like I've been given the golden pass to graduate in peace finally. Although I don't plan on leaving the club, someone else will have to take over my role by then right? Just a heads up. 

The role of a secretary is to take notes, send out emails or reminders about club events, and the like, it's not hard.

October 14th Meeting

 Good Afternoon, everyone! 💁

It's me your secretary, Bianca :# 

What are you all eating for lunch today?  

It's about that time so feel free to sit down and get your munch-on during today's chat.

In the last meeting, we mentioned cheating on Nanowrimo(short for National Novel Writing Month- which is November, by continuing stories we were already working on. 

If possible if you guys are taking any extra classes right now, please let us know. Or if you aren't interested in the Nanowrimo writing on the weekends that's fine too.  

By this time some of you are probably already taking your final exams online. When will you be free? I just wanted to say I'm free as I already took mine and have nothing to do.  

What are your personal goals for the rest of this year? 

Also it was just a thought before, but next year perhaps if this club is still open how great would it be if we had a short story writing contest that was horror themed? (These are just ideas)

Or publishing a book, with a collection of the member's short stories? 

I'm sorry, these days I've been having materialistic thoughts such as those. I've had nothing but moolah on my mind. I've sinned. 🙏

Also Cindy had something to share about a fundraiser? I'll let her take it from there. 

Edit: 

In the end we decided with the option to create a little 4 by 6 or 5 by 7 poetry poetry piece. Draw a doodle within the four by six template or five by seven and sell it on the library blog to raise funds for the Library's lending closet and... possibly ourselves? As we need permission for this first, I'll update this post later on as to how things turned out.

" Writers are readers inspired to write"

 Yet, I can't tell the last time I sat down to read another writing other than my own. These days I've mostly been reading manga and webtoons but I don't really count those as books. 

Pictures are pictures and to me books are pictures painted with words. 

What type of books do you guys normally reach for? 

What type of books do you guys hate?

Discord Chat

 Good afternoon everyone,

We have a Discord channel for the Writer's Guild. For those of you who do not know what Discord is, it is a free app that you can download to either your computer or your phone and communicate there. It does have Video and Voice chat abilities. Unfortunately, I am out here in the country with some boonie-Wifi so if I am trying to chat, my signal messes things up. As a result, I keep everything to typed communication.

Here is the URL link to the chat

Hope to see you there:)

September 30th Meeting

 👋 Wassup, wassup? 

Hope you all aren't sick of me by now. It's time to host our 30th meeting! Make some noise! 💃

Do we have anything to discuss? Hmm, let's see. 

Well there's the winners of the poetry slam, also the approaching Nanowrimo month. I always did it alone when I wasn't in this club (of course I never finished TT ^ TT) but hopefully we'll also be able to have fun in this club. If we're still not able to meet up, maybe we could video chat?I missed the chance to try out webex, but there's also messenger or skype? I will try to keep an eye on my email more often. 

"National Novel Writing Month (often shortened to NaNoWriMo) is an annual Internet-based creative writing project that takes place during the month of November. Participants attempt to write a 50,000-word manuscript between November 1 and November 30. Well-known authors write "pep-talks" to keep them motivated throughout the process. "

(The rules are to start on a completely new book so that you don't have a head start compared to other people lol)

If you all could let us know what days you all are free near November that would be awesome. Though I have a question for some of you. What's your goal? Is it to ultimately publish a book or do you just write for fun? For me its both. I really want to publish a book and get it adapted into a video game or anime one day. That's my dream. What are yours?

I'll try publishing some activities in a separate tab if we have time. 

Also Ms. C spoke in the CTC club live meeting and I'm just gonna post it here because I failed to watch it.

Several sites for writers

 Hi guys,

I know many of you are writing books, so I wanted to share some great websites that you may want to check out. 

querytracker.net is a site where you can look for agents. They help you match with an agent and then you send in a query letter. If they are interested, they will contact you to send in your first 3 chapters.

querymanager.com provides you with agent resources.

Both of those sites will give you instructions on how to write a query letter.


There's also forums where you can share your work with other writers: 

https://nybookeditors.com/2015/11/11-top-writing-communities-you-should-join-and-why/

https://blog.reedsy.com/writing-community/

In November, you can get involved with NANOWRIMO where you gather with other authors and write your novel during the month of November. https://nanowrimo.org/

So check out these sites. They're great for giving you feedback and getting you started.

Well, like everything before we encourage members to suggest writing ideas, it could be now or before future meetings maybe. What shall we do or discuss today? Hmm? Hmm, I don't think we have anything major to discuss today, either. How has everyone been?
