Only on a Friday
South Oxhey Scribblers book launch
By Beverley Small
The book launch
There was a lovely buzz in the air at Oxhey Library on Friday 24th September 2010, when members of South Oxhey Scribblers and their friends and family gathered for the launch of “Only on a Friday”.
Only on a Friday
This book is a collection of stories and poems that enable the writers to share their memories, hopes and aspirations as well as entertain their readers. Some of the writers read their stories to the assembled crowd, it was a pleasure to listen to them read their own published words. This is a book they can all be very proud of.
“Great atmosphere at the launch, the atrium was a lovely place to have a book reading”
The Scribblers
In the foreword to the book, Christine Wyard writes “The South Oxhey Scribblers were formed following a Creative Writing course run at ASCEND by West Herts College. The participants enjoyed it so much that they asked me if a writers group could be formed here at ASCEND…The original tutor Catherine agreed to continue, HAFLS (Hertfordshire Adult and Family Learning Service) funded the course, so Scribblers was born.”
The Scribblers sold 12 copies of the books, did you buy one or have you borrowed it from the library? Tell us what you thought of it.
