Writers Continue Recyclables Fundraiser; Announce Release Date for New Book

FAIRFIELD, Calif. - Feb. 5, 2018 - PRLog -- Members of the Writers Resource Center are continuing to collect recyclables as part of a group fundraiser, and have chosen October 13, 2018 as the release date for their new anthology, "Mélange: Musings From A Writer's Pen." Everyone attending the organization's next meeting is encouraged to bring reusable or recyclable clothes, shoes, dishes and electronic devises (no televisions) to donate. Full details for the fundraiser and how to be featured in the new book will be discussed at the session, which will take place on Saturday, February 10^th from 10 am to 12 noon at 1745 Enterprise Drive, Fairfield, room 112. Everyone attending must RSVP by emailing janiepbess@yahoo.com. Members must bring their membership card or certificate. Admission is free for members; others pay a small fee.  Refreshments will be provided.

"We're very happy to announce the release date for the anthology, a collection of fiction, non-fiction and poetry manuscripts written by people who have gone through, or are going through, our Developing Authors Series," says WRC Founder Janie P. Bess. "And there is still time for new writers to be included; we hope local authors and ones from throughout Northern California will come and get involved."

The group has received dozens of bags of recyclables since January, and would like to collect many more before its fundraising deadline later this month. It is working with a local thrift shop that supports nonprofits by paying a small stipend for each pound of donated goods. Items should be placed in a 13-to-33 gallon size kitchen garbage bag and brought to the meeting. The group's goal is to collect enough bags, at least 109, to fill-up a large truck or van. Anyone unable to attend should call 707-290-5390 to make other arrangements for drop-off.

Saturday's seminar will also include lecture, group discussion, writing exercises and homework.  Attendees should bring their own writing materials or devices and come ready to participate.  Space is limited; please arrive early for best seating.
