The Housatonic Valley Cultural Alliance is sponsoring a meeting of writers.
(NOTE: HVCA is the group with which I did my enrichment project, and I was on their board.)
The "Housatonic Valley Cultural Alliance is a regional network that enhances the connection, collaboration, and conversation within the arts and cultural as well as among business and other interest groups.")
Lisa Scails, the HVCA Director, told me that the meeting is "the inaugural roundtable meeting for writers that is at the request of writers who have joined HVCA recently. So far there are a variety of writers that have expressed an interest, from journalists, book authors, etc. The idea is simply to provide an opportunity for writers to network and to identify and address common issues from a regional perspective. A framework will be provided but we will allow for a more organic process too. Those who are behind this are excited about the many directions this can take them. It will depend on the participants and what they want to do. I’ll draft an agenda for the meeting as we get closer."
I plan to attend - if you're in the Danbury area, this is an opportunity to network with other regional authors.
