Writers Group Online

Mark your calendar for Sunday, January 12! The SCGS Writers Group will hold an online meeting from 1 to 3 p.m., accessible through your computer, tablet, or smartphone.

Group leader Jennifer Taylor often suggests subjects or writing prompts, which help people focus on a topic when they are at a loss for ideas or to motivate when they are stuck (writer's block).

Beyond the basic facts like births, marriages, deaths, and maybe some land ownership, it can be challenging for some to write stories about family, especially if they go back a couple of generations and we never knew them. So many stories are hiding in our family trees, and someone needs to tell or document them. The SCGS Writers Group is a special interest group that encourages family historians to describe the stories of their families and ancestors.
