Here we are

embracing our passion for words

learning from craftsmen

risking ourselves on the page

and handing the paper for critique.

Here we are

together for celebration of what we are

who we are

writers

powerless to resist the compulsion

powerful enough to create worlds.

    There comes a point, when the brain is fried with fatigue, yet the words, the right words, seem to appear on the screen.
