Coming Up: February 2026 Events & Meetings

We hosted a small but productive quarterly writing workshop online on Saturday, January 4. There’s room for several more members who want to share their work and receive feedback at our April workshop. Because of holidays and vacations the first weekend in April, we’ll shift the workshop to a later week. More details soon.

We welcomed Keith Rosson to our monthly chapter meeting on Sunday, January 18 to discuss his career (and punk music.) Thank you everyone who attended and for the many thoughtful questions you asked.

Book club attendees discussed Rosson’s book The Devil By Name (the epic sequel to Fever House) on Sunday, January 25.

Then we held the “2026 Vision Meeting” on Thursday, January 29. Thank you for the great turnout and welcome to members participating for the first time. You’ll see my summary of everyone’s suggestions soon.
