SUMMARY:WRITING HISTORY GROUP
DESCRIPTION:Dr Cheryl Griffin leads this group which has been meeting since 2020. \nThis group is for people who are tackling writing a history project or two and want a sounding board / source of information / guidance and HELP! Each month from February to November Cheryl convenes the group via Zoom for 90 minutes and they will attack a particular aspect of writing history and also be a sounding board for members problems / queries. Cheryl also has guest writers drop in to talk about their work and how they’ve dealt with thorny issues. \nThis writing group has a cap on the numbers who can join as we don’t want it to get too unwieldy where questions can’t be answered nor feedback given. Ongoing attendance is encouraged. The group dynamic doesn’t work if you can only drop in to a couple of sessions or you don’t have a current project on which you are working. \nSo\, if you are a newcomer and are interested in joining\, please RSVP for the Feb session and we’ll let you know if we have reached the limit of the group or not. \n\nTue 28 Feb\, 2023 11:30 – 1pm AEDT\nTue 28 Mar\, 2023 11:30 – 1pm AEDT\nTue 18 Apr\, 2023 11:30 – 1pm AEST (a week early to avoid Anzac Day)\nTue 23 May\, 2023 11:30 – 1pm AEST\nTue 27 Jun\, 2023 11:30- 1pm AEST\nTue 25 Jul\, 2023 11:30- 1pm AEST\nTue 22 Aug\, 2023 11:30- 1pm AEST\nTue 26 Sep\, 2023 11:30- 1pm AEST\nTue 24 Oct\, 2023 11:30 – 1pm AEDT\nTue 28 Nov\, 2023 11:30 – 1pm AEDT\nPlease download and import the following iCalendar (.ics) files to your calendar system.\nMonthly: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/tZAkcO-rpjgjE9xC-Djyq2jCCSkdiwv1SZNl/ics?icsToken=98tyKuGspzwsGdyWuRCPRpwIHY_CM-nxiHZEj_pFv1LBCTlCMAnVFdFJNrtoBonjJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/84976383998?pwd=T3ZmRGplWjY0SmI4M1hEQVBkQ0JnQT09Meeting ID: 849 7638 3998\nPasscode: 634475
