News From WordsSpring

Dear Members,

WordsSpring was an immensely successful re-visioning of our AGM & Literary Awards Banquet.  All events were well-attended and at the banquet 40 of us were treated to excellent readings by five prize-winners and our invited guest, poet Robert Moore.  There was variety to the weekend, too, as anyone who attended the Friday evening book launches and the Sunday morning open mic will attest. It was wonderful to see so many new faces. I loved Saint John despite getting lost for 40 minutes.

There were also developments and announcements!

* Your WFNB membership card now qualifies you for a 10% discount at these independent bookstores in New Brunswick:

Westminster  Books, Fredericton.
InPrint Books, both locations in Saint John.
Rags of Time Used Books, Moncton & Sackville
Tidewater Books, Sackville.

And we're adding to the list of bookstores!  Another reason to keep you membership up to date!

* We have a logo, made by Branch Design in Moncton.  Soon you'll be seeing it everywhere. Those at WordsSpring got a sneak peek. 

* We have new membership rates for high school ($10) and university students ($20).

* Also, we have a new writing competition, a partnership with Nature NB.  Click here to read all about it!

* And welcome Marlene Hull of Saint John, Grace Morris of Moncton, and Deborah Carr of Hillsborough to the board of directors.

Soon I'll be posting pictures from WordsSpring, I promise.
