Great short stories keep you balanced in midair, suspended somewhere between the world you normally inhabit and the world briefly illuminated by the author. The best short stories can afford to be inconclusive. You, the reader, complete them by joining them back to your life. People don’t know what’s going to happen next in their lives, so we don’t either.
This group discusses short stories generally using one book of a variety of short stories. After more than two years using “That Glimpse of Truth”, we are now agreeing on a new easy source of short stories and welcome new members and new ideas. Our meetings are informal, enjoyable and relaxed in a member’s home. We consider the author’s overall body of work and the specific short story learning about writing techniques and why short stories are so special.
“I look forward to our meetings both to learn something and have an enjoyable time. Plus you can always find time to read a couple of short stories!”
Meets:
