Join our lively, friendly group, sharing ideas for researching and writing our family tales and histories. The only requirement is membership in SCGS. You may have read one of our stories, columns or book reviews in The Searcher or on the website. We welcome beginners.
This is not like a college or evening class; we choose a topic for writing and discussion ahead of time. We bring stories we work on, articles from magazines and newspapers, URLs of interesting websites, and books on writing we like. At almost every meeting we spend time "free-writing," choosing a topic, writing, sharing what we've written. This sparks further ideas for tales. Learn how to turn the dry statistics of your "Begats, Beweds and Begones" into lively tales of family and situation.
