Don't Miss These Events!

These events are coming up fast! We don't want you to miss these great opportunities - hence the friendly reminder! And there is no attendance charge for any of them!

The regular meeting of the Uxbridge Writers' Circle is being held on Tuesday, October 2 at 1pm in the Uxbridge Arena, Boardroom 1. We are welcoming new members. If you're not sure, come anyway, and make your decision after having experienced a meeting.

Our special guest, Steve Burrows, is joining us for an evening meeting on Thursday, October 4 from 7.30pm until 9pm at the Blue Heron Studio. Steve has pursued his birdwatching hobby on six continents. The first Birder Murder Mystery, A Siege of Bitterns, won the 2015 Arthur Ellis Award for Best First Novel. Steve lives with his wife, Resa, in Oshawa, Ontario. Join us!

And on Saturday, October 13, one of our members, Vicky Earle, will launch her second book in the Meg Sheppard Mystery Series. Reader, Bill Bell writes "Move over Hercules Poirot and Inspector Banks - there's a new sleuth in town!". She's looking forward to signing books and reading excerpts from 2pm to 4pm on October 13 at Blue Heron Books. See you there!

What's Happening in October

Uxbridge Writers' Circle members are going to be busy in October. And you can join us!


We are looking for members. You can be a fledgling writer or a published author, or anything in between!


Come to our meeting on Tuesday, October 2 at 1pm at the Uxbridge Arena.
One of the activities members participate in, is our monthly "word challenge". We select the words one month, then at the next meeting we each read out our short story, poem, memoir or non-fiction piece (that incorporates all the words), and receive encouraging feedback from the other members.
The words for October are: satellite; chocolate; inhale; rental; emerge; landscape; pathetic; diminutive. Hope to see you there with your writing in hand!

On Thursday, October 4 we are holding a special meeting with author Steve Burrows as the guest of honour. We will be in the Blue Heron Studio from 7pm until 9pm. Check out his website: abirdermurder.com. If  you're interested in attending, contact vickyearle@gmail.com.

On Saturday, October 13 I will be launching my second book in the Meg Sheppard mystery series at Blue Heron Books blueheronbooks.com from 2pm until 4pm. You are invited! There is more information on my blog Vicky's Blog
