The 500 word topic for February, ‘The (season) I’ , was inspired by Jenny’s story ‘The Summer I Saved a Life’ and Michelle’s 2022 member’s choice topic ‘Summer 1977’. ‘Develop a title and share a story on a memorable season in your life using the season you remember it happening in as a backdrop or prompt.’
Alternative topics suggested for new class members - ‘New in Town’ ‘Have you ever been the new person in town, or did someone else's arrival have a profound impact on you? Share your story in 500 words’ or ‘The Year that Made Me’ (A topic often used by ABC interviewers with Australian living treasures.) ‘Write about a year which made a particular difference in your life’s journey. Over to you!’
A reminder that we have moved to the 3rd Monday – our first session is on Monday 20th February from 2 to 4pm. Enjoy the remainder of your break!
