b) In the blogosphere, a showcase for some of the talented works of group members, and a few pointers for other writers as we'll also be sharing some of the methods that work for us and other material of interest.
The facilitators were initially me, Rosemary Nissen-Wade, up-front and Pam Moore as back-up. We are both performance poets, with some publication credits also for fiction and articles. We have both been librarians, trained as teachers of Adult Literacy, and taught creative writing to adults at various educational levels. All this we discovered after we met each other in 2006. I am a volunteer at PBNC, Pam was on staff there. She has now moved on to other employment, leaving me to continue as WordsFlow facilitator.
I'm semi-retired, and since 1992 I have worked from home as a writer, editor, creative writing teacher, Reiki Master and professional psychic.

The WordsFlow writers are at all different levels of experience and working in a number of genres. What they have in common is a talent for writing and a vocation for it. We all have our own goals for participating in the group. The ones we share are the wish to meet with like-minded people and the urge to indulge our passion for writing. We try out different techniques, forms, styles, voices.... We get to do some writing (never enough!) each session and share our work if we want to. Privacy is respected, and we always find ourselves laughing a lot.
