Second Saturdays Writers Hang-Out
Our Second Saturdays writers hang-out is coming up this Saturday, May 11 from 7 PM until whenever. We will be meeting at The Albion again, because we have had requests for a more consistent location and The Albion seems like a good spot, considering that it is quiet enough for conversation but has a reasonable beer selection. All are welcome to join us for beer and conversation.
