OMG

So, as you all know, last night was a Group night (saying just Drink and Draw betrays my place as VP of Writer's Group ;).) In addition to spring inspiring us to start writing and drawing more, the Westword came to cover us!

We are getting known. o.O

More neat submissions have come in, too! The expected launch date for the magazine is this summer, and it will be full of awesome stories, poetry and art.

Sometimes I'm still amazed group is still around. I'm sure Drink and Draw would still be around, but I mean the group as a whole-writers and artists. It was about two years ago that the little Writer's Group began, and about a year ago that we Hamza, who introduced us to people who everyone in our small group would come to know and love. In addition to making some close friendships, it's given us a lot of momentum. Both groups lost a couple of people in the merge, but it made a lot of great things happen.

Anyway-thanks to Lonnie M.F. Allen for getting the Westword here, and here's to more good years!

First Submissions

We're getting stories and poetry!

Good stuff and even in such a small amount, it's surprisingly varied.

Keep it coming!

Updates and new stuff.

The Film Festival has come and gone with much success. All the films we got were great, and covered many genres, from comedy to psychological thrillers to music videos. There was a great turnout, and we sold art, posters, postcards and pins successfully!

So, many thanks to the great people who contributed films, art and their time to make it a success. Special thanks to the ever amazing Mr. Michael Prince for arranging it<3 <3 <3
