SCLA hosts open forum for writers to share work
The Sunshine Coast Literary Association (SCLA) is kick starting
the New Year, hosting its first Front Write Up performance night
for 2012.
The night will be held on Tuesday, 7 February at the new
location, Mulvaney’s on Maroochy, 37 The Esplanade Cotton Tree
from 6.30pm to 8.30pm.
President of the SCLA, Bryan Ward said the Front Write Up
evenings provide an opportunity for literary enthusiasts to share
their work with like-minded individuals.
“The Front Write Ups are a casual get-together and follow an
open-mic style.”
“We encourage people to bring their short stories, poems and
extracts of their work to read to the group, and seek feedback if
they wish,” Bryan said.
All community members are welcome to come and network, listen or
perform. If you have something you would like to share with the
group, please bring it along. However, there is a 500-word limit
for short stories and prose.
“Our Front Write Up Evenings are held the first Tuesday of every
month, so there is plenty of opportunity to share your work if
you are unable to attend the evening in February,” Bryan
said.
The evening is free for members and $2 for non-members, payable
on the night. The SCLA requests all guests to RSVP due to
catering purposes. Coffee and light meals are available for
purchase; alcohol is BYO.
The Sunshine Coast Literary Association is a not-for-profit
association dedicated to nurturing, showcasing and celebrating
literary talent throughout the Sunshine Coast region. Formed in
2005, the SCLA was created to provide a pathway for the Sunshine
Coast’s aspiring writers and enthusiasts to explore their
interests, develop skills, exchange ideas and seek advice from
like-minded individuals.
The association offers regular literary workshops, seminars and
events, an annual writing competition, and monthly Front Write Up
literary performance evenings that provide an opportunity to
showcase the talents of its members.
