August 21: Newport Storytellers CORRECTION

 Hello Storytellers

It's about our next zoom gathering.

This blogger made a typo on the previous post - she wrote July instead of August! Thank you to our attentive follower who spotted the mistake.

Our next ZOOM gathering is of course...

Friday August 21 
7.30 - 9.00 pm (although we do go over if we're still enjoying ourselves).

*Check the date in your diary!! This blogger mistakenly posted a July date. Thankfully one of our followers noticed and this has been corrected to August - 'cos time travel is not a thing yet..

 Hello ... We're back for another virtual gathering - a night of story sharing. And staying connected is more important than ever.

We want to hear what you've been up to in the past month, listen to your stories, poems and patter.

  • We ask that contributions be around the 6 minute mark. 
  • We've planned for an hour but if we're still enjoying ourselves and wish to go over - we will.
  • Musicians welcome; if you have patter or a story you wish to try out - we're all ears.
When you arrive we'll spend a few minutes writing down names and working out the running order and this will be posted on the chat stream. Please if you wish to tell a story, poem or simply share a work in progress,  arrive on time.

 TO JOIN THE NEWPORT STORYTELLERS: A ZOOM Please email Jackie and she will forward the instructions to you.
