    All writers are welcome to this laid back intense writers group. We talk about all forms of writing, publishing opportunities, and the writing process. We also critique and discuss each other's work. The atmosphere is congenial and the criticism offered is always offered with many questions, clear honest observation and no personal attacks. Writers from all levels and backgrounds are welcome — from MFA to just starting out — there is no sugarcoating but the lively discussion is kindly, passionate and constructive.

    A Boston Harbor Islands Adventure

    lala books @ 189 Market St, Lowell, MA, 01852, United States

    Adventure with us today along with Stephanie Schorow and the Friends of the Boston Islands as they share with us the process of writing this historical treat. In 1891, four intrepid women from Lowell sailed to a remote island in Boston Harbor for a 17-day escape from New England's prim and proper society. Calling themselves the Scribe, the Aristocrat, the Acrobat, and the Autocrat, the women rusticated in a cottage on Great Brewster Island, reveling in the chance to shed their identities of wife, mother, and daughter. Relive their sojourn through their remarkable journal, filled with observations, illustrations, photographs, and poetry, reproduced here by the Friends of the Boston Harbor Islands.
